Is a Facebook account really required to create Qobuz account?

    I paid for a year in advance and they never asked me about Facebook. I really like the service.

    No but you can use Facebook to sign up for it

    No, using your Facebook account is just one way to sign up, but it is not necessary.

    Miles Davis Quintet - The Legendary Prestige Quintet Sessions started playing automatically, so I'm going with it.

    Make sure you checking the high rez stuff out on there. I am not sure what app you are suing but, on my Lumin, Lightning and Mcontrol apps, they state hi rez on the icon.

    I'm using a computer, smartphone and will later this eve set up the Qobuz plug-in on LMS for the Squeezeboxes. I think that's limited to 24/96. I can probably figure out something to play high-res with on the main system.

    Here's the settings page for the app. There is an option in there for > than 96. I presume this means greater than 96k. I'll play around with it to see how it works.

    I see the 24/192 option in the apps they have, but on the LMS plugin setup, it's not shown as such. I think the >96 may be the higher resolution stuff. I'll see how it goes if I try to play it and do some reading.

    I'll check it out on the month trial. Need to see about getting some playlists imported. I think I used Soundiiz for this before when I was checking out Tidal and converting from Spotify for head start.

    I’ve had Tidal for 5 months. I recently lost power twice in one day and have not been able to get Tidal to function properly. I started spinning discs and WOW, such a good sound! I signed up with Q to verify there wasn’t any hardware damage to the streaming side of things (due to loss of power).
    Streaming hiRez through Q immediately changed the “bit rate display“ on my DAC, whereas that never happened with Tidal

    Too soon to tell. I just signed up yesterday
    I hope the pricing of their new tiered structure stays the same after the new yr.
