Reply to comment by BrynmawrMetal in Music sounds so much better on cd, why?? by puk3x
This. Unless your music stream makes a point of being "lossless", then you're listening to music that has downgraded sound, in order to stream faster.

I’m also not sure how Bluetooth is these days, but if you’re listening with hardwired headphones/speakers vs Bluetooth I don’t believe Bluetooth can handle lossless quite yet, but I believe there were advancements to make it better. I could be wrong, but yes, compression!

Bluetooth does its own lossy audio compression. So if you're listening to am already lossy stream, BT could make it worse but it definitely will reduce audio quality of an otherwise lossless stream.
