New Spotify Hi-Fi Tier Offers Lossless Audio Streaming

What is Spotify Hi-Fi?

Spotify Hi-Fi is a new streaming tier from Spotify that offers lossless audio quality. This means that music streamed through Spotify Hi-Fi will sound closer to the original recording than music streamed through Spotify's other tiers, which use a lossy audio format that compresses the audio data to reduce file size.

How does Spotify Hi-Fi work?

Spotify Hi-Fi uses a lossless audio codec called FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) to stream music. FLAC is a compressed audio format that does not lose any of the original audio data. This means that music streamed through Spotify Hi-Fi will sound identical to the original recording.

What are the benefits of Spotify Hi-Fi?

There are several benefits to using Spotify Hi-Fi, including:

• Improved sound quality: Music streamed through Spotify Hi-Fi will sound closer to the original recording than music streamed through Spotify's other tiers.
• Lossless audio: Spotify Hi-Fi uses a lossless audio codec to stream music, which means that no audio data is lost during compression.
• Higher bitrate: Spotify Hi-Fi streams music at a higher bitrate than Spotify's other tiers, which results in better sound quality.

How much does Spotify Hi-Fi cost?

Spotify Hi-Fi will cost $19.99 per month, which is the same price as Spotify's Premium tier. However, Spotify Premium subscribers will get a discount on Spotify Hi-Fi, paying $14.99 per month.

When will Spotify Hi-Fi be available?

Spotify Hi-Fi is expected to be released in the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia, and Germany in 2021. Spotify has not yet announced a release date for Spotify Hi-Fi in other countries.
