Should you enable Spotify lossless audio feature?
Well, yes, “something is better than nothing”; this quote fits here perfectly, although Spotify isn’t providing the superior quality if we compare it to other providers, but it is still better than listening in low quality ( Very High – Up to 320kbps).
Note that once you enable the lossless audio feature on Spotify, you will be burning a lot more data than earlier. The very high quality on Spotify uses only 0.14 GB per hour, whereas lossless quality will use up to 1 GB per hour of listening.
