Spotify has announced that it is finally bringing lossless quality audio to its popular music streaming service. The company made the announcement at its Stream On online event and said that customers in 'select markets' will be able to upgrade their subscription to the CD-quality audio later this year.

Hopefully they use Opus 1.3.1 codec.
Its quality is truly impressive, from ultra-low bit-rate to very high bit-rate and everything in between.

1. To the comment below: Opus is a lossy codec, Spotify HiFi will use lossless files. Learn the difference.

2. To the article author: Saying MQA (A LOSSY CODEC) is better, is at least deceptive.
