The fact that it's hard to differentiate between un decoded MQA 44/24 and hi res 192/24 file (Which has been my limited experience) is a big plus for the streaming world.

It would appear MQA will benefit everyone even without decoding? It certainly won't hurt CD quality listeners but I can see why purveyors of traditional high res music are nervous. Real Competition has arrived in a market where there was little.

Just thoughts, Chris 😊
