Spotify or Pandora
A relative pointed out two music download websites: Spotify and Pandora. I don't know anything about music downloads. But I was hoping to stream hi-rez original artist oldies. I tried one selection on Spotify and it sounded like MP3 quality and didn't seem like original artists were singing.
Please advise. I would love to stream in hi-rez oldies from the 50s and 60s, but don't know if Spotify or Pandora are good sources.
Thanks

I prefer Spotify because it is totally free and I can also use a great Spotify album downloader for Mac to help me extract all the songs for free listening offline. https://www.drmare.com/spotify-music-converter-for-mac/ |
Just went on Tidal web site. OK, ... so walk me through how I get the Tidal music into my linestage. I do not have a DAC, other than what is in my PC. So the music signal from the PC to the linestage has to be in analogue format. So, how do I connect my PC to my linestage in analogue mode. Is there a UBC jack to SE or XLR/BAL type connector cord to make the connection? Is the UBC jack a digital output? If so, would I have to use the headphone output jack of my PC?? But how do I connect that to the input jacks of my linestage (SE or XLR/BAL)?? Also, is the DAC in my PC inferior to a separate stand-alone DAC unit? If so, how much SQ would I lose by not having a dedicated DAC? I am a older member of the baby boomer generation. So this is all new to me. Thanks. |
Instead of Pandora music, I’d like to listen to music, playlists from Spotify streaming services, since it gives me the free access to over 35 million songs. Although I didn’t like to use Spotify before, since there is no way for me to download Spotify files for offline listening. Fortunately, I found out the professional Spotify to MP3 Converter for Mac from https://www.audfree.com/spotify-music-converter-mac/ that can help me download and convert Spotify tracks as MP3 even without Premium subscription. |
