Abive is a 320 kbps vs lossless test you can do to test your hearing. If you can tell the diff between them in most cases then Tidal is better audio quality than spotify.

I can't tell the difference in majority of cases unless the lossless mix is improved over the 320 kbps version of a song (some songs are like that). So i cant pass the test linked above. Some people can just straight up tell the difference tho im jelly

So I tried this, and the results were kind of about what I expected. I got 60% correct on 4 of the tracks (Killers, James Blake, Eagles, and Dixie Chicks) but 80% on the Daft Punk track. I felt pretty confident answering the ones from Daft Punk since I'm much more familiar with that genre. I produce electronic music, so I knew what subtleties to be listening for between the two. I probably could have gotten the differences if they threw in a metal track as well

So to the average person who listens to a variety of music, lossless probably isn't that big of a deal. But if you get deep in the weeds of a particular genre, the very fine details will stand out
