Following yesterday’s launch of Spatial Audio and lossless in Apple Music, Apple’s Eddy Cue sat down with Billboard for an in-depth interview.

In the interview, the Apple exec discusses lossless and Spatial Audio, whether or not he can tell the difference in lossless audio, and much more.

At launch, Spatial Audio is available on “thousands” of songs on Apple Music, which offers over 75 million songs in total.

In the near future, Cue believes that “every new song that comes out” will be available in Spatial Audio and Dolby Atmos:.

I think we’re going to see certainly every new song that comes out very quickly here in Dolby Atmos, and you’re going to see people going to their back catalogues.

To me, when I look at Dolby Atmos, I think it’s going to do for music what HD did for television.

Cue also touches on the debate of whether you can actually hear the difference in lossless audio.

The Apple exec explains that while he personally can’t tell the difference, Apple Music supports lossless for the “small set of customers” who want it:.

Because the reality of lossless is: if you take a 100 people and you take a stereo song in lossless and you take a song that’s been in Apple Music that’s compressed, I don’t know if it’s 99 or 98 can’t tell the difference.

The good news is they’ll have lossless and they’ll have Dolby Atmos and Spatial
