Do you remember where you were when Spotify first promised to deliver a hi-fi streaming tier? It sometimes feels that the audio streamer has been promising a hi-fi service since I was a child, and while I'm exaggerating I'm only exaggerating a little bit: Spotify said it was about to launch Spotify Hi-Fi back in 2021, which is an eternity in the streaming audio market. But it looks like it's finally coming, although of course it'll probably cost extra.
According to Bloomberg, Spotify is preparing to introduce a version that insiders call “Supremium”. It’ll be the most expensive Spotify plan – prices aren’t detailed yet but it’ll almost certainly cost more than the $9.99 / £9.99 Spotify currently charges Premium subscribers – and will deliver higher quality audio, presumably using a lossless audio codec.
