I'm a veritable Luddite clinging to Vinyl and CD and using hard drives to my computer audio DAC.I thought this MQA was mainly about speed because streaming was taking up too much space.
I live in Hong Kong my download speed as I write this is 732.01 mbps. I have unlimited downloads/uploads at $50CaD ($35US) a month.
So I don't see the benefit of worrying about size of files. For serious listening I pick and choose what I want to play - not listening to glorified FM. And sure as poop not PAYING for glorified FM.
