Apple Music is getting two big updates next month: support for high quality, lossless audio and for spatial audio through Dolby Atmos.

The company says it’ll have 75 million lossless audio songs in its catalog to start, and anyone listening through AirPods or Beats that use the H1 or W1 chip, or the built-in speakers in the latest versions of iPhone, iPad, and Mac will have spatial audio turned on by default.

TIL Apple Music has a dedicated app for Windows that supports lossless audio.

The audio enhancer feature adds an effect that makes the sound crisp and clear. The only thing missing is remotely controlling the music using the iOS app. Spotify offers remote feature on both iOS and Android if I am not wrong.

Is your audio system really ready for lossless?

Do an ABX test in your browser, and see if you can tell the difference between lossless and lossy audio

If anyone wants to test their ears and see if they can tell the difference between lossy and lossless tracks, I tried it out and got them all right!
