The French music service Qobuz is particularly popular with hi-fi fans. The provider has been on the market since 2007 and wants to score points with high-quality music. Before services like Apple Music or Deezer introduced it, Qobuz had already had high-res audio and the best quality.
Various streaming services now offer uncompressed or high-resolution audio content, but the French offer even more. Qobuz has its own HiFi magazine with news, interviews and test reports. If desired, music lovers can also forego the streaming offer completely and buy music in the download store. This is exactly where Qobuz is now relying on a new system.

Users can buy the coins in different packages; you can choose from 2,500, 5,000 and 10,000 coins – one coin corresponds to one euro. If coins are available, they can be invested in music via the desktop app, the web player or the download store on the website.
