    @Lennarthellman wish there was something European for purchasing music as well. Bandcamp is nice, but it’s too much money I’m giving to the US on every purchase.

        Wait, can you actually purchase music through Qobuz? And download it for an unlimited number of times in different formats (mp3, ogg, flac etc.)?

          Yes! You can buy music through Qobuz. They even offer DSD files for some albums.

          They try to get you to sign up to their subscription, but they don’t try too hard. I really enjoy that there’s a downloads store, you can just go there, search up all the mainstream music you want, and buy it right on the website. No app or iPhone required.

    Best thing I did this month was sign up. The service feels like a high quality adult version of spotify. It’s definitely geared towards music enthousiasts with curated album picks, interviews, digital album covers, high resolution (better then cd) quality music and a UI that makes sense.

      Exactly this indeed. Recently I started using roon on top of that. That takes the experience to an even higher level. As you point out, though, it’s for serious music lovers.
