Spotify's HiFi Launch Delayed, but Still in the Works.
TL;DR
Spotify still plans to launch its lossless music experience, HiFi, but the timing and form of the launch are still undecided. Originally intended to cost more than the standard plan, Spotify's lossless is now expected to appear as part of a more extensive plan that includes access to spatial audio tracks and other perks. Apple Music and Amazon's inclusion of lossless listening options as part of their standard subscription price has made it less reasonable for Spotify to charge more for a like-for-like service.
