"Lossless audio files allow for listeners to stream music using the least compressed and highest resolution audio formats can have, the company said. Previously, when a musician uploaded their work to a streaming platform, the files tended to get compressed and lose some quality due to the encoding process. Spotify says that with Lossless Listening, users will now be able to hear every detail within the audio file."
""We've taken time to build this feature in a way that prioritizes quality, ease of use, and clarity at every step, so you always know what's happening under the hood," Gustav Gyllenhammar, Spotify's vice president of subscriptions, said in a statement. "With Lossless, our premium users will now have an even better listening experience." Founded in 2006, Spotify has become the world's most popular audio streaming service, garnering over 696 million users."
Lossless Listening allows premium users to stream music in minimally compressed, high-resolution audio that preserves original recording detail. The format captures original sound waves and reconstructs them to reproduce the initial recording quality, enabling listeners to hear delicate instrument plucking and subtle vocal samples with greater clarity. The feature is available in select countries, including the U.S., and is currently limited to music. Spotify emphasizes prioritizing quality, ease of use, and clarity throughout the feature. Spotify, founded in 2006, serves over 696 million users across more than 180 markets and maintains a library exceeding 100 million tracks.
