Streaming Services

I'm not quite sure this is the right category, but I'm sure it will get moved if it's not. Anyway, I subscribe to Spotify and have found it a great resource for discovering 'unsung' composers and their works. Recently someone mentioned 'qobuz' to me - evidently it offers higher quality (at cost). I was wondering if any members here have experience of both and whether qobuz has a similar 'repertoire' as Spotify. The other factor to consider whether it is actually worth paying for 24 bit streaming etc. when one's ears are probably long past their best anyway..

Honestly the large majority of things will be on all the streaming sites, especially releases from the last few years. There are going to be gaps yes, sometimes very weird seeming ones (like "a 12 volume series will have 10 of them and the missing ones are in the middle" type of gaps.

If you can hear the difference then Qobuz might be a good choice. There's also Tidal which also offers high bitrate streaming. But not everyone can hear the difference, or at least enough to pay the extra.

Has anyone tried Idagio which has specialised in classical music?
