I'm not sure anyone has been, yet; the subject of this thread seems to
ask two questions, but the discussion seems (so far) to only be about
the first; 'Breakthrough?'.  Setting aside the debate about whether or
not MQA is cynical proprietary-format snake-oil and/or a DRM vehicle,
for a while, what about the second question: 'LMS possible?'.

How would LMS handle MQA, if Tidal does eventually stream MQA?  Would it
pass it through to an MQA-supporting DAC? (e.g. Meridian Explorer 2
hanging off a RPi?), or would (could) it process/convert MQA to
PCM/FLAC?  I guess a plugin would be required for the second case, but
what about the first, for 'pass-through'?
