So for the moment, I am on Tidal HIFI at 19,99 and will see if I switched to Tidal Family at a later stage, not sure yet. My family in the end admitted that they won't have to switch as they were using so little Spotify that they don't care loosing their accesses. I used a freeware to transfer all my songs from Spotify to Tidal and it worked perfectly (there are many, very easy to find on the web).

My feedback is that out of 700 songs on spotify in my playlists, only 12 where not on Tidal and out of the 12, none where a problem if I could not listen to them anymore (until there are present on Tidal).

I switched on Tidal nearly 3 month ago as promised in my original post as Spotify did not move an inch on their loosy '320Kbps only' strategy. Spotify CD quality / HIFI / Lossless streaming 16b.That said, bitrates for lossless audio can be dramatically higher - think around 1,411kbps - which effectively gives a track more data to reproduce the nuances of the recording. In case you were wondering, Spotify's current maximum audio bitrate is 320kbps, which means it almost certainly sounds leagues better than the mp3s you've ferried from computer to computer for years. Spotify hasn't yet revealed Spotify HiFi's cost ahead of the upcoming launch, but the focus on delivering lossless, CD-quality music remains the same. Thankfully, Spotify HiFi isn’t exactly a new concept: the company teased a high-resolution streaming option as early as 2017, when it offered CD-quality audio to certain users in the United States for an additional $7.50 a month. Strangely, in its infinite wisdom, the company largely declined to explain its HiFi service to viewers. That may change soon, though - the company confirmed today that it plans to launch a Spotify HiFi service in 'select markets' later this year. Spotify is tremendously popular, sure, but it has never been a platform for audiophiles.
