My Question or Issue

Why is the sound quality so extremely bad on Spotify compared to other music services. Compared with Amazon, Youtube Music and Tidal. Tidal of course offers HD resolution and why can't you. Not even with the new HIFI plan you can do it why?

This particular song though was not offered in HD. It contains a lot of distortion in the recording itself, but listen on Spotify is very painful. I hope my suspicion that you're deliberately decreasing the sound quality because of the new HIFI service is not true? Anyhow i will do some thorough measurements of your streams. And if it's not the correct bit rate or differs to much from competitors you're in**bleep**! Music tested with: https://open.spotify.com/track/7BwQofH99NX3zA0Oyv277p?si=5b52bcb5e98a43de
