If you are a person who cares about the difference between 24-bit / 44.1kHz and 24-bit / 192kHz audio, you probably already left Spotify.
Spotify knows that, they also figured out that's why they couldn't charge more for lossless.

Spotify Lossless is an inconvenient improvement
Spotify Lossless is an inconvenient improvement
Lossless is clearly better than a normal Spotify stream, but improvements over “high quality” audio are subtle.

EU is demanding that every site use age verification technology, while insisting it do things it cannot do, and behave in a manner it cannot behave. This is not policy making. This is wishful thinking, with a side of "we'll just blame the tech companies for not waving their magic wand."

If Apple or Garmin came out with a display-free band with GPS, Whoop would be in serious trouble trying to charge this much per month. For now, Whoop is able to play against the downsides of a smart ring, which suffers badly for weightlifting/battery life/etc.
Whoop wants everyone to give a whoop about the new Whoop 5.0
