Spotify News: Hifi Tier Rumors Surface

In recent months, there have been numerous rumors surrounding Spotify's upcoming HiFi tier, with many speculating about the features and benefits it will bring. While we wait for official confirmation from Spotify themselves, here are some of the latest developments.

According to sources, Premium users can expect 20 hours of audiobook listens added to their account, as well as the ability to listen to free audiobooks. Additionally, AI-powered playlists and mixing tools are rumored to be on the way, allowing users to create custom playlists based on mood, genre, and more. The potential mixing tool is said to enable 'DJ-like' control over playlists, with options such as sorting songs by BPM, danceability, and using AI assistance.

Another exciting feature rumored for Spotify's HiFi tier is the ability to listen to 24-bit, high-fidelity sound, a significant upgrade from standard audio quality. To differentiate itself from cheaper competitors, Spotify may offer 30 hours of audiobook listening per month for its HiFi tier subscribers.

The rumors also suggest that AI-powered playlists and mixing tools will be exclusive to this new tier, setting it apart from existing Premium plans. However, no official name or features have been confirmed by Spotify at this time.

The latest leak comes from a Redditor named Hypixely, who claims to have scoured Spotify's app code and industry rumors for hints about the upcoming HiFi tier. According to Hypixely, Spotify is expanding its feature set to remain competitive with other music streaming services that offer high-fidelity audio at no extra cost.

The need for a HiFi tier gained urgency after Apple Music and Amazon Music began offering lossless audio to their users without additional charges. Spotify initially announced plans to launch a HiFi tier in 2021, but the launch was delayed, leaving fans waiting for over a year.

With these rumors surfacing, it seems that Spotify is finally ready to shake things up with its new Supremium tier. While we await official confirmation, one thing is clear: Spotify's HiFi tier promises to bring a significant upgrade in audio quality and features to loyal Premium users.
