Editorial and album extras
Beyond streaming, Qobuz highlights album context and background: thoughtful write-ups, exclusive pieces from music writers, and additional metadata that appeal to listeners who want more than just song playback. These extras are produced by Qobuz’s in-house editorial team and cover a wide range of genres and regions.
Access and technical requirements
Qobuz is a streaming service, so an internet connection is required to access the catalog. On mobile devices (including Android) you can use Wi‑Fi or mobile data (LTE/5G) to stream; offline downloads are available with supported subscription plans for listening without a connection.
Trial options and subscriptions
You can start with a limited free trial to sample Qobuz’s service before committing to a paid plan. Monthly and annual subscription tiers are available depending on the features and audio quality you choose.
