24bit 192kHz Sample Rate?!?!
To actually hear higher rates (if it is even possible), you need to drop from coin on a stereo set up or wired headphones and a DAC that can do higher rates well. But even if it is not possible, 16/44 or 24/48 or 24/96 (I think above that is silliness) on a better stereo system or to good headphones, is pretty awesome. Also Lossless Switcher, which automates it on macOS, is working very good now. So you can get out of the Audio MIDI Setup handcuffs. https://github.com/vincentneo/LosslessSwitcher

Tidal or Apple Music for quality music
There's a workaround for the bitperfect situation for Apple music: a plugin. It's only for MacOS, tho. And is another thing that can fail at some point.

Any Dolby Atmos + Hi-Res Lossless Albums/Songs Out There?
The issue is that on MacOS Apple Music does not automatically switch sample rate based on songs. There is a 3rd party tool to do this: https://github.com/vincentneo/LosslessSwitcher
- MacBook and zen dac v2 with FLAC and dsd
- Is there a version of this, but for Apple Music on Windows?

How stop Apple Music from self launching on Mac Mini M1?
Get ready to get your mind blown. To see if another music service would be involved, I got a 30 day trial of Amazon Unlimited. AU still sucks, except it does have exclusive mode and Apple Music does not. This lack of exclusive mode on AM was a clue on the cause of it launching on its own! Anyhow, when a SONG on AU changes (at end or, me skipping), Apple Music launched! WTF? Remember, this was happening before I installed AU but this suggested a clue. Just to check, I quit a neat little app I use to automatically change bit rate in AM and, the launching stopped! So LosslessSwitcher is the culprit!
