Looking for a way to stream Apple Music at its native sample rate with bit-perfect playback? Check out [Arco 0.5.0b2 on GitHub](https://github.com/renebouwmeester/arco/releases/tag/v0.5.0b2) ( [Release Arco 0.5.0b2 · renebouwmeester/arco · GitHub](https://github.com/renebouwmeester/arco/releases/tag/v0.5.0b2) )

Developed by Rene, a Roon community moderator, the app is still in beta, but I’ve been really pleased with it. I’ve been using it to stream to Roon and to my Linn streamer via UPnP.

You can also go to the Roon Community forum, search for the topic “**[Another way of playing Apple Music in Roon](https://community.roonlabs.com/t/another-way-of-playing-apple-music-in-roon/325471)” by RBM** René for details.

I just wanted to add that you can stream UPnP and Spotfify lossless (in addition to Apple Music) seanlessly.

The following shows how one user can stream Spotify lossless to his Linn streamer using the Arco app:

I tested it myself, and found no loss in the SQ.
