Presumably Symfonium is streaming lossless files whereas Spotify probably isn't. That and Spotify is probably caching a lot more.

I'm tempted to give it a go but I exclusively type using swipe gestures on my phone so I'm not sure that's a learning curve I want to commit to.

Windows 8.1 was great. My favourite iteration of Windows ever.

I liked Deezer until it's redesign a few years ago. Now the design language is so ugly I could never consider paying for it. Their biggest flaw for me though is that some albums are just randomly not available in lossless and the only alternative is mp3 which I refuse to use in 2025. Some lossy codecs are great so why do Deezer and Qobuz still mess around with mp3?

What a genuinely fascinating read. Such a shame most people don't even question what AI tells them and just assume everything is correct all the time.

Sure we should always have choice but if you're hopping out of Microsoft's monopoly into Google's is there even any point?

As much as I dislike Microsoft, I see no reason for Windows users to download Chrome when Edge is right there.
