It's a gimmick in the sense that it is indeed possible to find certain tracks where the difference will be hard to tell. It could be because of a number of reasons..poor master, uncomplicated audio tracks, good lossy transfer - in this regard it is worth noting that Mastered for iTunes sounds quite good, far better than the average lossy thing, plus in many cases engineers have produced albums to sound good in that particular format (to sell). On average though..far more tracks in lossless will outperform lossy, plus Spotify lossy is just yuck.</p></blockquote><p></p>
