Maybe they've since added blocking artists. I know that I had several back and forth conversations with Spotify support on this and there wasn't any way to do it back then. I don't want to block a song, I want to block an artist/band completely.
I don't want shuffle to take into account their licensing fees, or which record labels they have promotions with. I want a random mix based on my favorite songs or chosen playlist. This is unacceptable and part of why I cancelled Spotify.
Tidal doesn't use mqa. The company behind mqa went under and they've since changed to FLAC.
Good headphones or great speakers and I do hear a difference. Not in every song, but in many. Spotify keeps promising better quality and they keep failing to deliver.
For reference, I have studio monitors that are calibrated and room corrected. Yes. There is a difference.
