Yikes.

Code spotted within the Spotify app last year also suggests that the tier could come with 24-bit lossless audio

At 44.1k, 16bit is CD quality which is perfectly good enough. But no, dupe people into paying more for something they can't use. Typical.

so many people think they're "audiophiles," yet say "ok, that's good" when they asked for more "sizzle," but you only pretended to boost the 4K and didn't change a damn thing
