Qobuz offers all music in MP3 at 320 kbps, CD-DA quality lossless (16-bit/44.1 kHz) as well as hi-res quality lossless (up to 24-bit/192 kHz) for certain music downloads are offered in either WAV, AIFF, ALAC, and FLAC for hi-res quality, with lossless WMA also available for CD quality music only, and MP3, standard WMA, and AAC in 128 kbps or 320 kbps for lossy quality. Īs of May 2022 Qobuz currently offers four plans: Studio Premier (Base subscription, monthly as well as annual with discount), and Studio Sublime (An annual-only subscription that adds a discount on downloads,) as well as Family variants, with up to six users, of each plan and Duo plan. In June 2020, the subscription offerings were increased with a family plan, Qobuz Family, which allows the customer to share six accounts among members of the same household. However, MP3 listening is available as an option for conserving storage space or using less bandwidth. All Qobuz subscriptions give access to high resolution quality (Hi-Res) and CD quality. On June 15, 2020, Qobuz ended its MP3 quality streaming offer, focusing instead exclusively on lossless streaming. QUB Music, a streaming platform launched in Quebec by the Quebecor company, was born out of this alliance. On June 3, 2020, Qobuz announced the signing of a financial and industrial partnership with Quebecor, a Canadian leader in telecommunications, entertainment, news media and culture. In April 2020, during the early months of the COVID-19 crisis, Qobuz supported artists by giving 100% of the revenue from each new subscriber’s first paid month back to the rights holders. This certification guarantees that the audio streams delivered by Qobuz meet the criteria and standards defined by the JAS.Īt the end of 2015, after a period of financial uncertainty, Qobuz attracted a new investor, which allowed the service to continue operating. It will also be interesting to compare their charges for downloads.In 2013, Qobuz received the Hi-Res Audio certification, awarded by the Japan Audio Society (JAS). I am watching this with interest as the AUD subscription price appears to be cheaper than the Euro price.
They also offer good discounts for their “Sublime” subscribers for downloads.

I much prefer Qobuz to Tidal - particular as they are more directed my particular interests (Classical) - and the PDF booklets are available for most new releases (and are also accessible through Roon).
Your problems playing though Roon, could be that they have not yet fully configured the Australian site.
Since they have introduced the Australian site, I have problems with the website (not the web player) directing me to the Australian site, which I have to work around, but everything else is still working OK. They do say that once you are subscribed you can access Qobuz anywhere in the world. I am able to play through Roon and I have never had any problems with it. I signed up to Qobuz France without realising that this should have been theoretically impossible - and I was not using and do not use any VPN. I have been a long term subscriber to Qobuz living in Australia.
