Yeah but your smartphone can't play it without resampling it, and last I checked, your Bluetooth headpods can't play it without reencoding it.

Lossless streaming is a marketing ploy that wastes resources for no reason. High bitrate opus is better for streaming.

Finally Spotify adds a feature I look forward to
Four years after it was announced, not as high quality as the competitors, no sign of Atmos. You can see why they couldn't justify charging more for it.
The article says next month it will come to Sonos. That's ideal because those speakers are not Bluetooth; they're on your Wi-Fi.
