I use it to play FLAC I've bought from Bandcamp, Bleep and other stores. I'm using an android phone so need something that plays FLAC well through a DAC/amp without messing about with it. I also use Tidal to stream music, I can use it in exclusive mode or use UAPP, the UAPP interface is a bit clunky but not such a great hassle. I think its good value.
