i have the whole setup but i cannot tell the difference. Their dolby demo kind of seems like its something but i honestly don't listen that actively to notice.
I miss 'discover weekly', collaborative playlists , spotify curated playlists, on repeat ect.
Not sure if ‘discover weekly’ does more, and there are still huge unexplored areas of music recommendation, but the weekly recommended playlists on Apple Music have been wonderful for me. I add music to my library faster than I can listen to it at this point, and I’ve discovered bands in my 40s that I hold as close to my heart as those I discovered as a teenager.
I treat claims that people can hear differences between lossless and high bitrate lossy compression with scepticism. I do not doubt anyone's sincerity, but it's unbelievably easy to fool yourself with audio signals. Expectations become reality even when the signal is identical. What you expect changes how you listen; and how you listen changes what you hear.
For me it is the discography view that Spotify has. They buried it in the most recent update, but I recently found that none of the competition has it.
That and it turns out that Apple's windows software is still a bit of a dog after all these years.
