Hey Head-fiers, I got a FREE album from QOBUZ after having purchased one that had a defective track
 
so i downloaded the freebie album only to discover Volumes 1 and 3 have a strange cut-off at 15KHz, well better tell tale cut-off that indicates lossy files being passed as CD quality 16/4.1Khz
 
Disappointing, i told my bf to get the CDs from his brick and mortar store damn lest see
 

 
So fake flac?

It seems you must be ware of digital doenloads then or better buy the CDs then

It's also commonplace on Bandcamp.

The thing is that LOL i went for this way of thinking with an album i saw on two sites.. Presto classical has it at 24/48 but "the greater the Khz the best" so yeah qobuz has it at 24/96... and turned a fake... over the years i've had like 7 fakes with qobuz, that now i'd be using qobuz solely for the Vivaldi edition from Naive Classique other than that i'll stick with presto classical or amazon Physical medium and last resort qobuz
