To add to @Polygonhell’s point, I’m going to drop a link to another post here:
The podcast linked to within that post has a couple of audio researchers as guests. One of the researchers points out that listeners inevitably prefer a lossless format over a lossy format… EVENTUALLY. The tricky part is mp3 and other compression codecs are really good at determining and presenting the “essence” of a piece of music. If one’s exposure is first and most often to a lossy format, that essence creates the expectation of how a track should sound. The subtle details like reverb and air that often get lost in a lossy (HA!) format can initially sound like a distraction from that essence. However, in time and with practice listeners do begin to prefer the added realism that the lost content gives back when moving to a lossless format. But that takes time and lots of listening.
