Hi, Jimbocky,

The two download services I use most are HDtracks and Qobuz. I prefer HDtracks because it's a more simple process to purchase, download, and catalog but Qobuz has more offerings. One trend I've noticed with both services is that there seems to be fewer true high resolution albums (24-48 thru 24-192) being released for sale. Most of the albums are CD quality (16-44.1).

Lately I've been first looking to see if the artist or record company has a website offering digital downloads of 16-44.1 or better. My hunch is that more money is getting to the artist by purchasing direct.

Tom
