Once Qobuz is launched for good in the US, I guess/hope you'll have pretty much the same library.
Truth be told, the 16/44.1 sounds perfectly good as long as the source was well recorded, which is always the limiting factor. Of course, superbly recorded 24/96 or 192 is even better, but I've heard some that didn't sound that great--no doubt a function of a less than stellar master tape.
