ya xiami or qq vip worth it as higher bit download to mp3
not the best audio but mai hiam in car play

If you streaming to the CAR Audio through Bluetooth, or you download the non protected MP3, info will get lost.

I do not have high requirements for the audio as I do not have high cost audio gears.

Still I think there is a difference between the highest quality DRM protected format (SQ Lossless FLAC/APE in QQ Music and MQA in Xiami Music) and the high quality format (high bit rate MP3), when using my mobile phones (mainly Huawei P20 and iPhone 6S, using Apple EarPods, Huawei Type-C adapter + Sony MDR-100AAP headphone or Audio Technica earphones). I also use cheap Creative Bluetooth speakers.

But I understand that the highest quality in QQ Music and Xiami Music may not be the best quality either.

One particular useful feature of QQ Music to me is that the VIP is also usable for the TV version.

And the TV version can be used as a Karaoke app as you can remove the vocal of the original singer.

For other better Karaoke apps, VIP on the mobile phone is not usable for TV version and vice versa. You have to pay VIP twice, one for mobile and one for TV. This is different from the typical VOD apps VIP where the TV VIP covers the mobile VIP.

From the other thread.

For those who want to use PPTV Sports (plus China VPN) to replace the SingTel Cast Sports Plus pack, take note EPL has cancelled television rights contract with Chinese broadcaster PPTV.

Previously PPTV agreed a reported US$700 million (£523 million) deal for the right to broadcast all 380 Premier League matches per season from 2019 to 2022.

I notice qqmusic only can use on one device. Once you login another device. The other side logs out also.

Oh wait.. Gosh I just managed to easily pay for QQmusic 1mth via wechat!? When was this enabled!!? Awesome!

Seems like QQ music can’t receive the latest updates from iPhone App Store. Anybody got this issue?

It is no longer available in the Singapore Apple App Store. Therefore you can no longer update it.

Hi~ thank you xiaofan for sharing all the valuable tips.
i am considering whether to sign up for youku vip. i've noticed that shows under Disney (eg, Mulan, Avengers) will require vpn in order to watch (i'm testing without vip on mobile).
Can i confirm that with vip, it will not require vpn? If so then i think it has upper hand over tencent.

I also realise i can cast to tv with 乐播投屏(happycast), which means that i just need the cheaper vip and can cast on tv to watch 1080p?
But then again, if it's region blocked then i can't watch it right.. Unless 酷喵vip can unblock it?

Try Asiancrush buddy! Not bad leh.

I just checked, with my VIP, China VPN is still required for 木兰, more over I need to pay RMB 4.8 to view it so I did not proceed. Basically it is not free even for VIP members.

If it is region blocked for Youku VIP, 酷喵VIP will not be useful either.

On your mobile phone, you can try free Transocks VPN.

And yes I can cast with DLNA, just install 酷喵 on your TV box but no need to log in, it is a better for casting Youku than Happycast. I actually do not use Happycast.

 

[xiaofan]

I also checked with my Tencent Video VIP, Mulan木兰 is also not free.

Avengers: Endgame is free with Tencent Video VIP now.

Again China VPN is required.

I only pay for mobile version VIP of Tencent Video but again I use DLNA cast to my TV box with the help of 云视听极光 (TV version app of Tencent Video).
