had the chance to try a few of the android based streamers from fiio. and eversolos up to 8. that apple music works good is wrong. not the full functionality, not gapless and i never reached more than cd quality. if anyone is looking for another streamer only for apple music lossless hd it will be a disappointment. at least for now.I’ve been reading lately that while Eversolo and FiiO can offer hi res lossless Apple Music thru their use of the official Apple Music app on a version of Android with a modded audio subsystem, that Eversolo also offer an “Apple Music service” on their devices which is limited to CD quality playback in addition to the “remote control” of the native Apple Music app. The service route also doesn’t seem to support gapless playback or playlist folders. I understand Hifi Rose have a similar implementation.
I wonder if that route would be of any use for WiiM users or whether sticking with AirPlay (on WiiM devices that support it) would be their preference. I was just thinking given that a couple of other streamer companies appear to be able to do this whether there’d be any point in WiiM trying to develop similar. I don’t know how “official” that route/API is so maybe it would still come with caveats (or obstructions) from Apple…
Just musing…
