Music Piracy Is Back in a Big Way—Especially From YouTube

Visits to music piracy websites went up more than 13 percent last year, a new report says. The majority of those visits were to sites that allow users to download the audio from YouTube URLs.

But are they lossless 96kHz+? Only reason I use qobuz.

Did I misread 320bps mp3?

Hopefully it's Kbps, otherwise...

Tidal? You can even download all your music in lossless flac format

Can't play music without the tidal client I think

You can extract an API key and use other players that support it like Strawberry.

Honestly the most complete source of high res music is private trackers like redacted. You can download all the stuff from qobuz and bandcamp, every CD rip you can think of in bit perfect quality of and even very good vinyl rips. You basically can download any version ever released from any album.
