Do you use eBay? If so, it's easy to save a search for an item or a brand name and eBay will notify you whenever such an item gets posted. Obviously not the place to expect a deal on a 40,000 dollar component... but a great way to automate fishi... 
Do people tire of audio forums?
@dekay I came for Kenjit and MC, but stayed for the free hotdogs.  
Does Qobuz work
I've used Qobuz on a 2i and the 2022 Bluesound and it works great. Sounds like a user account/login issue. Bear in mid that there is no "Connect" API like Tidal and Spotify have, so, instead of using the Qobuz app for streaming, you need to use ...
