I listen to mainly Spotify, with itunes a distant second for the bands/articts who are not yet available. I accept that itunes sounds better (Ihave have mainly lossless files). I always regarded You Tube as somewhere just to dip into and get an idea.
But I am presently listening to Radiohead's King of Limbs, which is availbale in its entirety on You Tube. I also listen to And So I Watch You From Afar on You Tube since they disappeared from Spotify.
Today's listening has jumped from itunes to Spotify to You Tube and it has dawned on me that You Tube's sound quality is right up there with Spotify and I doubt that in a blind test I could tell the difference. Spotify streams with Ogg Vobis at 320kbps.
Am I just slow on the uptake or has You Tube done something to make is sound so much better than before?
