After years of waiting and speculation, it looks like Spotify is finally getting an addition that will change the way I listen to music every day. No, not another Taylor Swift album (we can dream) but improved sound quality.
A Spotify hi-fi tier seems to finally be coming and as someone who uses the music streaming service every day, it will change my life. As my friends and co-workers know, I pretty much always have my headphones in, and while my musical tastes might not be particularly 'heavy' (although some of Swift's songs go pretty hard) I like to have it loud.
I have never gelled with in-ear headphones. Either I just cannot get the tips to sit in my ear for more than five seconds, or I feel like I'm digging into my brain. As a result my flat headphones often leak a lot of noise, with co-workers often able to hear what I'm listening to. Hopefully, with higher-quality sound, I won't have to crank the volume so loud to make out the lyrics and musical nuances, and I won't have to pick only songs that my co-workers won't silently judge me for.
