Apple loseless is so good if you have the right piece of hardware. Repurposed my old 2012 mac mini to be able to install big sur and hence the latest music app. And now I'm able to get high quality music of the 50s, 60s and 70s Hindi songs.

After a lifetime spent holding microphones to the world’s most remote wildlife, audio naturalist Martyn Stewart is sharing what he’s gathered. Though snippets have appeared in hundreds of movies, documentaries and podcasts, Stewart has now made about 200 recordings publicly available after receiving a diagnosis of terminal bone cancer. Anyone can click through “Martyn Stewart’s Listening Planet” and find themselves by a Brazilian stream at dawn or the Daintree Rainforest at dusk. Listen to a selection of these audio gems, which include the chirps of a strawberry poison arrow frog and the snuffles of the now-extinct Northern white rhino
