>Everything in the universe has diminishing returns
>Different people may have different priorities
Yeah, I agree and that's fair because that kind of choices will be subjective in the end. And I do prioritize lossless/FLAC for my desktop setup (ATH-MSR7SE w. Topping D10 + JDS Atom) myself whenever possible because I do able to hear a subtle difference from it. And just like you, even if that's the case, I will still listen to lossy sources if it's not possible to buy/find it or if I want to watch the video too.

>Though like they can't tell you you're doing wrong to not seek lossless, it's not fair to say they are wrong
What I tried to argue here was when anon before you tried to discredit YouTube with unsubstantiated accusations about how it destroys his music. I believe in both subjective and technical measurements, so I won't deny that YouTube is quite stingy with the bitrate and I do want them to deal with it as soon as possible. But please, do a proper research about it first. They won't ruin your audio quality as bad as they did in the past now. Also, I have done ABX tests with some latest codecs available, and I found out that lossy codecs like Opus and AAC are enough for my portable setup (Various IEMs paired with Shanling Q1/xDuoo Link Dongle DAC + Phone) without losing too much of the experience. And thus, just like I said earlier, in the end it's a subjective matter of whether you need it or not.
