Maybe you knew that already, but now I'm confused so please allow me to go on for a bit. And from what I can gather from MusicAlchemist's reply, if a person is satisfied with the audio quality of the AIFF/WAV Qobuz file, no reason to buy the CD to check if it's better quality you should pursue Tidal for credit, but those downloads would not have helped you make the same comparison anyway. Buying used CDs and ripping them is still a bit of a process. Personally, I'm going to continue purchasing music from Qobuz. Personally, I'd just buy used CDs on Amazon, eBay, and Discogs (available for as low as a penny plus shipping) and rip them to lossless." If the Qobuz file is from a different master than the CD, one will just have to listen to both to determine which one they like better. File size between the two may vary slightly due to differences in metadata & artwork. “If the CD rip and the Qobuz copy were derived from the same master, they should sound identical. Hope someone who has done this comparison comments here! ^_^Įdit: Had a chat with Alchemist on this topic in PM. The next thing I'm interested in knowing is whether there is any difference in file size between AIFF/WAV music downloaded from Qobuz and ripped from a CD.
