The silver lining? We have good reason to believe that Spotify HiFi songs will be available to save and download to your devices for offline listening, which means you should be able to take your new lossless music library with you anywhere. Spotify hasn’t said exactly how much the service will cost just yet, it sounds like it’s going to be more than the basic Spotify Premium price of $9.99 / £9.99 / AU$11.99 per month and there’s no guarantee that every song in the entire Spotify catalog will have a HiFi version available. 9to5Mac suggests that this gives Apple Music an advantage over Spotify, and in turn could have forced Spotify to rethink their strategy.Īfter all, why would customers pay for a higher tier when the competition like Apple Music are essentially giving it away for free, right? Either way, if you’re a Spotify subscriber who was looking forward to this new service, you might have to wait until 2022 before you can subscribe to it.Unfortunately, even when Spotify HiFi does release it will only be available in “select markets” to start. However, it could be due to the competition, namely from Apple who earlier this year revealed that their own Apple Music service would be getting a lossless tier at no extra cost to subscribers. It is unclear why the company is taking this long to launch the service. The company previously suggested that it would launch by the end of the year, but given that we’re only a week away from entering 2022, it seems that there is a good chance that may no longer be happening. Unfortunately, it looks like there is a chance it might not make the cut this year. This would be a new streaming tier offered by the company that would unlock higher quality streams for users who might be particular about audio quality and want only the best that streaming services have to offer.
Earlier this year, Spotify announced their plans to launch Spotify HiFi.
