![]() ![]() For artists who want to be paid for their streams, that’s probably best. While Spotify has focused heavily on podcast content, advertising, and general audio, Apple has focused on music. Estimates suggest Spotify’s podcast listening audience will outnumber Apple’s – so the focus of the two companies is vastly different. That’s why Spotify has pivoted to podcasts – which offer unique content to draw in new users. A feature that was previously planned to be ‘premium’ now must be offered for free to remain competitive. The simple answer is that Apple has likely forced Spotify to adapt its business model. Why hasn’t Spotify announced the HiFi release date? But for those who want access to high-fidelity streaming music, Apple, Amazon, Deezer, and Tidal are the current best options. YouTube Music has yet to even utter the phrase ‘lossless audio,’ so there’s no competition there. If Spotify can’t offer CD-quality audio at no extra cost, then it can’t compete with Apple Music and Amazon Music.
