Qobuz <\/a>is a relatively confidential service compared to Spotify<\/a>, Apple Music<\/a>, TIDAL<\/a>, and YouTube Music<\/a>. But it’s a platform with nothing to envy to the names mentioned above<\/strong>, and above all, acclaimed for its audio quality. That’s why you’ll want to subscribe to Qobuz <\/a>and import your data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It’s simple: audiophiles generally turn to Qobuz<\/strong> or TIDAL to choose their streaming service. We’ve already published a blog article<\/a> comparing these two streaming services so that you can see the pros and cons!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the best audio quality on the market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Qobuz, a French company launched in 2007<\/strong>, is available in eighteen countries and has based everything on the quality of the listening experience<\/a><\/strong>. It is one of the main reasons you should try Qobuz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Qobuz offers a FLAC listening format, and after consulting several audio professionals’ websites, Qobuz seems to be the service favored by “sound” lovers<\/strong>. Please note, however, that not all tracks Qobuz offers are available in Hi-Res. Even so, there are some 400,000 of them, so you should have plenty to be satisfied with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great editorial content<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Qobuz differentiates itself from its competitors by basing itself on a logic of proximity to its users<\/strong>. In an increasingly digitalized world, where attention spans are declining and the written word is being replaced by video content, Qobuz is taking an interesting stance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The platform offers editorial content with written notes on some albums<\/strong>: they extend the listening experience with a bit of reading<\/a>, which we appreciate at Soundiiz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Qobuz also offers, via the “Staff Picks”<\/strong> the equivalent of recommendations from a record store. They are not necessarily adapted to your listening history but are selected by the Qobuz staff. Once again, the notion of proximity is essential. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only thing that might make you hesitate is that Qobuz doesn’t offer podcasts or radio<\/strong> like its competitors. With them, it’s all about the music and nothing else. But after all, isn’t that the most important thing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price and subscription<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Regarding subscription offers<\/a>, Qobuz offers a slightly higher entry point than some of its competitors. With a price of 10.83$ per month for the Studio version<\/strong>, 14.99$ per month for the Duo version, and 17.99$ per month for the Family subscription. There are also “Sublime” plans, starting at 15$ per month: they will give you discounts on Hi-Res purchases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can find details of these offers directly on the Qobuz website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After analyzing all this, we at Soundiiz figured many of you would want to try Qobuz. The good news is that Qobuz has set up a one-month trial offer to test its services<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you’ve signed up, you’ll undoubtedly want to import all your previously accumulated data<\/strong> into Qobuz. Soundiiz lets you do just that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We explain it all right here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
