Spotify HiFi worth signing up for?


So...Spotify will introduce a lossless service called Spotify HiFI.   I haven’t seen much else other than it will be CD quality.  No availability date or cost structure yet, nor whether the HiFi service will have the same catalog as the regular service.  Since I am a happy Qobuz Hi-Res listener, I am debating whether it is worth it to subscribe.  Anyone have thoughts or further information about Spotify HiFi?

This whole "when is Spotify going to offer Lossless CD quality" drama has been going on since their last beta test in 2017.  Members persist. 

The spotify community forum rumor mill says they will finally offer lossless "sometime late this year".  Who knows, almost too late.   Meanwhile they've been asleep at the wheel. Amazon HD, UltraHD continues pull more new customers in, along with Qobuz. That new native Amazon GUI interface is advancing and getting updated monthly now, inching closer to Spotify each month now. Playlists, Learning capability, MyMusic list learns more now. Less cost with Prime membership too.
