I still buy CDs and then put them into iTunes uncompressed and onto my iPods uncompressed if possible- a couple have low storage GBs, so I have to compress, but those are used when I run or bike ride, so fidelity is limited by cheap ear phones.

In the house and Porsche, those iPods have plenty of gigs, so no compression.

Can I tell the difference, I kind of doubt it, but I think it sounds better and I’m the one listening.

CDs can be had for fairly cheap and then I own the music and am not beholden to the whims of the online content providers.
