Tom. I'm guessing that it would be quite easy to "flick a switch" server-side in the FLAC headers to prevent MQA devices recognizing the MQA stream. Just a guess though. Having said that, I recall TIDAL mentioning (can't remember where) that they will be maintaining both copies; doesn't make sense long term though.
