I can find music on YouTube Premium that is recorded better than the popular music on Spotify. Like this one: https://youtu.be/QaFh6MBin44By "recorded better", I don't necessarily mean sampling frequency and bit depth. I mean spatial preservation.

I totally agree on that. The bit rate and sample frequency isn’t the bees knees if its poorly produced in the first place.
I just find more consistent within Spotify without searching around. In You tube , I find I have to dig thru a few versions to get the better stuff or find playlists that have “ hi fi” or acclaimed better quality and even at 256kb it just doesn’t matter because the original is so good. But that’s just my ears I don’t know if science or math proves that. But I gotta just trust what I’m hearing.
It’s totally amazing the amount of music that’s at our finger tips these days. No more waiting for my Columbia House CD order to show up in the mail! So glad I kept all my cds though. Super fun to play those!!

I don’t think I’ve ever truly heard what 24 bit 192 sounds like but CD quality via an optical cable is pretty good!! I think beyond that I don’t feel like I’m missing much , especially with well produced and recorded stuff.
