In my experience the container format is kinda irrelevant, the important questions are : Is it lossy or lossless ? What's the bitrate ?

Having listened to Spotify and Apple Music Lossless, there is definitely a noticeable difference. I have blind tested myself with the help of family members and I can always tell which is which after like 30 seconds, and I have terrible ears (tinnitus since birth)
