I have had Wimp/Tidal Hifi for a while now, lossless streaming is a good
thing. But content - to me - is even more important.
With Tidal the selection of classical music is rather limited. Actually
so limited, that it is more like a service for someone who once in a
while wants to listen to mainstream classical recordings.

I also use Spotify and it is amazing what they offer, especially also in
the classical sector. Really obscure stuff, it is great fun even
exploring loads of live recordings etc. 

Since I usually use Spotify for listening to "non-classical" music,
where the compressed signal does not really make a difference to my
ears, it is great to find new and interesting classical recordings, that
I will later buy and rip to flac.

With the new owners of Tidal, it does not look as if they have any great
interest in classical music, so content will probably not get any
better.

Qobuz also has lossless streaming and is much better than Tidal with
classical content. But the best of all is still Spotify, maybe there
will be a lossless option in the future - that would be the one
streaming service to rule them all.
