Ditching Tidal because of MQA and fully move to Apple Music already and their library is awesome tho.
If you use an Android device or iOS then you can use airplay to your PC via shairport4w. To my understanding that gets you lossless on Windows as it's Airplay 1. That's what I currently use.

My patience for an improved Windows app with Lossless & Spatial has went away and so I took very desperate measures.
Shairport4w does this (audio only with Lossless & Spatial), and its free & open source (meaning you don’t have to mess with AirServer’s finicky trial system).

iTunes & lossless/Hi-Res on Windows
I know this is a workaround, but you can download and run Shairport4w on your windows machine, and AirPlay to it from your iDevice as Airplay is lossless.

Itunes Bitrate?
use https://github.com/ciderapp/Apple-Music-Electron
- The Apple Music web player is really bad
- It is 2022, and still the best way to listen to Apple Music lossless on Windows is by emulating macOS 😒 Apple, we REALLY need APPLE MUSIC for WINDOWS!
- Spotify, wieso ist deine GUI so beschissen?

Scrobbling multiple artists on Apple Music (iOS)
I found a great desktop app for Windows (Apple Music Electron) which lets me scrobble only using the first artist before a comma (,) or ampersand (&) so that Burial & Four Tet counts as a Burial scrobble. And that’s great!
-
Has anyone here switched from Spotify to Apple Music? If so, what is your experience with the switch?
You can try 3rd party app Apple Music Electron . Official Windows app is iTunes but everyone knows it is dog poo.

More control over artists to scrobble [last.fm]
I’d like to emulate the Spotify scrobbling method which only takes the first artist listed in each song (the main artist) the following. The desktop client I use for Apple Music (Apple Music Electron) already does this by identifying commas (,) and ampersands (&) as splitters so that DJ Snake, Rick Ross & Rich Brian would scrobble as a DJ Snake song.

Apple appears to hit goal of making entire Apple Music catalog available in Lossless by year’s end
Try Cider for Apple Music.It supports 990kbps for 90% of the library with amazing customizable themes or if you want Hires Lossless but with limitations then check out my Post on this subreddit.

[$15] [14.8] Musixmatch synced lyrics with English translations in Apple Music lockscreen,notification center
Love the look of Lyrication but it's a shame that it doesn't support translations for the synced lyrics. This should help with creating the tweak: https://github.com/ciderapp/Apple-Music-Electron/blob/master/resources/lyrics/musixmatch.html So for example synced lyrics that are in Japanese would show in English and musixmatch does this automatically.
