I don't understand the whole audio quality thing. I have produced (shitty) music, been playing music my whole life, and my ears just don't had beyond 320, 41k, I guess. I will say, when messing with samples, higher quality led to much less artifacting (practically none with flac), but when I'm just cranking tunes, the returns beyond 320 are nonexistent.

Suggestions, I'm always open to more. Spotify has been good to me, I discovered some bands and albums that have gone on to be number one in my rotation, and I like all sorts of music and am nostalgic to a fault. But more suggestions is good so I'll accept that point.

Podcasts I can take or leave, although as I mentioned I discovered the stupid Smartless podcast because of Spotify so I need to give them a nod there.

So yeah that's it, that's all I got! Thanks for taking!

Well, I'm glad compressed audio is good for you. I know many people that couldn't care less.
The person you commented on and myself have both found Spotify quality to be lacking.
I've found tidal, and it's Spotify without the chuff and pays artists better. And it's cheaper.
Maybe I can't actually hear the difference, and a true A-B blind would show the truth, but I don't care enough to do that. I'm enjoying music more, and I'm saving money
