    Re: Amazon Music HD...

    Amazon HD had a massive pop music library. For example it has three “Flying Dogs of Jupiter” albums where Qobuz has only one. Sound quality wise, it appears to me to be the same on titles I have vs CD and Qobuz. Since Amazon has more bandwidth than God it runs well when other services falter. The UI is not very good and I’m uncertain what’s actually happening in the signal chain in my PC vs. other options that are more clear about what is happening. I am mooching of off of a friends family plan so the cost is compelling.
