In the fast-evolving landscape of global music streaming, where platforms are often defined by a single core strength — Spotify’s algorithmic dominance, TIDAL’s artist ownership, Qobuz’s audiophile purism — Deezer stands as a quiet revolutionary: a Paris-born streaming giant with an 18-year legacy of innovation, a relentless focus on hyper-personalized listening experiences, an industry-defining commitment to fair artist compensation, and an unrivaled mission to make high-fidelity audio accessible to music lovers in every corner of the globe. Founded in 2007, long before streaming became a household norm, Deezer is one of the world’s oldest and largest independent music streaming platforms — a French trailblazer that predates Spotify’s global launch, pioneered lossless Hi-Fi streaming for the masses, and reimagined the very rules of how artists get paid in the digital age. Unlike its competitors, Deezer has never chased mass-market scale at the cost of its core values; it has instead carved out an irreplaceable identity as a platform that balances studio-grade audio quality, AI-powered personalized discovery, groundbreaking artist-centric payment models, and true global accessibility, operating in more countries than any other premium streaming service and serving a diverse audience of casual listeners, audiophiles, emerging artists and global superstars alike.
Deezer’s journey is a story of resilience and reinvention: from its humble beginnings as a scrappy Parisian startup fighting copyright battles to become a licensed streaming pioneer, to securing multi-million euro funding rounds, listing on the Euronext Paris stock exchange, and launching the world’s first artist-centric payment system (ACPS) — a revolutionary model that rewrote the industry’s unfair royalty rules and put power back into the hands of musicians. It weathered the rise of Spotify’s algorithmic empire and TIDAL’s artist-led revolution, evolved its audio offering from compressed MP3 to lossless FLAC Hi-Fi, and built a signature feature called Flow that remains the gold standard for personalized music discovery, outpacing even Spotify’s Discover Weekly in its ability to curate seamless, intuitive playlists tailored to individual taste. Today, Deezer boasts over 120 million tracks, a catalog of exclusive podcasts and curated radio stations, lossless 16-bit/44.1kHz FLAC Hi-Fi audio, and a global footprint spanning 180+ countries — more than Spotify, TIDAL and Qobuz combined. It counts 9.2 million loyal premium subscribers (5.3 million direct, high-value users) and achieved positive free cash flow for the first time in 2025, a milestone that solidified its position as a profitable, sustainable independent player in an industry dominated by tech giants. Most importantly, Deezer has become synonymous with fairness: a platform that does not just stream music, but fights for the artists who create it, rewards genuine fan engagement over passive algorithmic plays, and proves that a streaming service can be global, profitable, and principled all at once. Deezer is not just a streaming platform — it is a testament to the power of French innovation, a champion of artist equity, and a bridge between casual music lovers and audiophiles, between mainstream pop and niche independent sounds, and between the global north and south, bringing high-quality music to every corner of the world.
As a leader in premium multi-room smart amplifiers, we recognize that true high-fidelity audio is a harmony of exceptional streaming content and superior playback technology — and Deezer’s unwavering commitment to accessible lossless FLAC quality and seamless hardware integration perfectly unlocks the full sonic potential of our engineered audio systems for listeners across the globe.
1. Gallic Origins: The French Trailblazer That Invented Modern Streaming (2007 – 2013)
The mid-2000s were a chaotic era for the global music industry: illegal file-sharing platforms ruled the internet, record labels were losing billions, and the concept of “legal music streaming” was still a distant dream. In Paris, two young entrepreneurs — Daniel Marhely and Jonathan Benassaya — saw an opportunity to fix this broken system, launching a fledgling music platform called Blogmusik in 2006, a free streaming service that let users listen to unlimited music online. The platform was an instant hit with French music lovers, but it quickly ran afoul of France’s strict copyright laws and the country’s leading performance rights organization, SACEM, which forced Blogmusik to shut down in early 2007 for unlicensed distribution. This setback was not the end for Marhely and Benassaya; it was a catalyst for reinvention.
In August 2007, the duo relaunched their platform with a new name, a new mission, and a critical new partnership: Deezer was born, fully licensed by SACEM and the three major record labels, offering legal streaming to French users in exchange for ad revenue that was shared with artists and rights holders. This was a groundbreaking moment for European music streaming: Deezer became the first legal, ad-supported music streaming platform in France, a country with a rich musical heritage and a fiercely protective stance on artist rights, and it quickly gained a loyal following for its simple promise: unlimited legal music, for free, with no compromises. Deezer’s early success was rooted in its French identity: it was a platform built by Parisians for Parisians, with a deep understanding of European music tastes, a sleek, intuitive interface that rejected the clunky design of its American competitors, and a commitment to curation that reflected France’s love of art and culture.
By 2012, Deezer had outgrown its French roots, raising €70 million in funding from Access Industries (the parent company of Warner Music Group) and striking partnerships with over 25 telecom companies across Europe, turning its platform into a staple of mobile phone plans and home internet packages. In 2013, Deezer made its boldest move yet: it launched globally, becoming available in every country in the world, a feat that no other streaming service had accomplished at the time. This global expansion was a defining moment for Deezer: it transformed the platform from a beloved French startup into an international player, and it set the stage for its next era of growth — one that would focus on two pillars that would define its identity forever: high-fidelity audio quality and hyper-personalized music discovery. For Deezer, the goal was never to be the biggest streaming service; it was to be the most accessible, the most user-centric, and the most fair — a mission that would guide every decision the company made in the decades to come.
2. Evolution & Innovation: Hi-Fi Audio, Flow & The Rise of a Global Independent Giant (2014 – 2022)
The 2010s marked a golden age of innovation for Deezer, a period where the platform solidified its core features, expanded its global reach, and cemented its reputation as a leader in audio technology and personalized listening. While Spotify was busy building its algorithmic empire and TIDAL was still a niche Norwegian Hi-Fi service, Deezer was quietly revolutionizing the streaming experience with two game-changing innovations that would become its calling cards: lossless Hi-Fi audio and Flow, the world’s first truly seamless personalized music stream.
2.1 Pioneering Hi-Fi for the Masses: Deezer Elite & Deezer Hi-Fi
Long before Spotify added lossless audio and TIDAL launched its MQA Masters tier, Deezer recognized that music lovers deserved better than compressed 320kbps MP3s. In 2014, the platform partnered with Sonos to launch Deezer Elite, an exclusive lossless FLAC audio tier (16-bit/44.1kHz, 1411 kbps) designed for high-end home audio systems, making Deezer one of the first major streaming services to offer true CD-quality lossless audio to mainstream users. This was a pivotal moment for the audiophile community: Deezer proved that lossless audio did not have to be a niche luxury reserved for classical music purists, but could be accessible to anyone with a love of great sound and a decent pair of headphones or a home speaker system. In 2017, Deezer expanded this vision with the launch of Deezer Hi-Fi, a permanent lossless audio tier for all premium subscribers, no hardware partnerships required — a bold move that put Hi-Fi quality within reach of millions of users worldwide, and set a new standard for audio excellence in the streaming industry.
2.2 Flow: The Crown Jewel of Personalized Discovery
If Hi-Fi audio was Deezer’s commitment to sound quality, Flow was its commitment to the listener — a revolutionary feature launched in 2014 that redefined what personalized music discovery could be, and remains to this day Deezer’s most beloved and iconic tool. Unlike Spotify’s algorithmic playlists, which refresh weekly and feel disjointed, Flow is an infinite, real-time stream of music tailored to the user’s exact taste, blending their favorite tracks with deep cuts, forgotten gems and perfectly matched new discoveries in a seamless, unbroken sequence that feels like a curated radio show hosted by a friend who knows your taste better than you do. Flow learns with every listen, adapting to mood, genre preference and even time of day, and offers Mood Flow and Genre Flow options — 32 curated genres and 6 core moods (Chill, Motivation, Love, Sadness, Focus, Party) — that let users tailor their stream to any moment. For casual listeners, Flow is a revelation: it eliminates the hassle of creating playlists and lets them sit back and enjoy music that feels handpicked for them. For audiophiles, it is a gateway to new music that aligns with their refined taste, without the generic algorithmic missteps that plague other platforms. Flow is not just a feature; it is the soul of Deezer, a testament to the platform’s belief that music discovery should be joyful, intuitive and human, even when powered by cutting-edge AI.
By 2022, Deezer had cemented its position as a global independent powerhouse: it merged with a SPAC and listed on the Euronext Paris stock exchange, raised over €160 million in funding, and built a catalog of over 90 million tracks and exclusive podcasts. It had partnerships with BMW, Google Home, Sonos and Mercado Libre, and its user base had grown to over 10 million premium subscribers. Most importantly, Deezer had stayed true to its French roots: it remained an independent platform, unowned by tech giants or record labels, and it continued to prioritize user experience and artist fairness over endless growth. But the platform was not done innovating — and its boldest move yet was still to come: a revolution in how artists are paid, one that would change the streaming industry forever.
3. Core Identity: The Three Pillars That Make Deezer Irreplaceable (Hi-Fi Accessibility, Fair Artist Equity, Hyper-Personalization)
Deezer’s enduring success, in an industry dominated by Spotify and Apple Music, stems from three unshakable core pillars — pillars that set it apart from every other streaming service in the world, and that have turned it into a beloved brand for casual listeners, audiophiles, artists and music lovers alike. These pillars are not just features or marketing slogans; they are the very DNA of Deezer, the reason it has survived and thrived for 18 years, and the foundation of its identity as the most balanced, fair and user-centric streaming platform on the market. Together, they form a trifecta of excellence that no other service has been able to replicate: accessible Hi-Fi audio for all, the world’s fairest artist compensation model, and hyper-personalized discovery that feels human. These pillars are the heart of Deezer, and they explain why the platform has such a loyal, passionate user base — and why it will continue to thrive for decades to come.
3.1 Universal Hi-Fi Audio: Lossless Quality for the Masses, No Gatekeeping
Deezer’s first core pillar is its unwavering commitment to accessible high-fidelity audio — a mission that stands in stark contrast to TIDAL and Qobuz’s premium-priced Hi-Res tiers, and Spotify’s late, lackluster entry into lossless streaming. Deezer offers a clear, simple audio hierarchy for all users, with no hidden fees or exclusive hardware requirements:
- Free Tier: 64kbps / 128kbps compressed MP3 (ad-supported, limited features)
- Premium Tier: 320kbps high-quality MP3 (ad-free, offline listening, unlimited skips)
- Hi-Fi Tier: 1411kbps lossless FLAC (16-bit/44.1kHz CD quality) — included in the same premium subscription price, no extra cost, no fine print.
This is Deezer’s defining audio promise: Hi-Fi quality for everyone, not just wealthy audiophiles. Unlike TIDAL (which charges a premium for HiRes FLAC/MQA) and Qobuz (which is a Hi-Res-only platform with a higher price point), Deezer makes lossless audio accessible to millions of users worldwide, with a subscription price that matches Spotify’s basic premium plan. Deezer does not offer 24-bit HiRes FLAC or MQA Masters (a deliberate choice to prioritize accessibility over ultra-niche audiophile features), but its lossless CD-quality audio is flawless for 99% of listeners, delivering crisp, clear sound with full dynamic range, no compression artifacts, and perfect reproduction of the original recording. For Deezer, sound quality is not a status symbol — it is a right, and every music lover deserves to hear their favorite songs as the artist intended them to be heard, regardless of their budget or technical expertise. This commitment to universal Hi-Fi has made Deezer the go-to platform for casual listeners who want great sound without the hassle, and audiophiles who value accessibility and simplicity over ultra-high-res specs.
3.2 The Artist-Centric Payment System (ACPS): The World’s Fairest Royalty Model, A True Industry Revolution
The second pillar, and Deezer’s proudest achievement, is its groundbreaking Artist-Centric Payment System (ACPS) — launched in 2023 as the world’s first comprehensive artist-centric streaming model, a revolutionary reimagining of how streaming royalties are calculated and paid, and a direct rebuke to the unfair, one-size-fits-all models used by Spotify, Apple Music and even TIDAL. This is not a minor tweak to royalty rates; it is a complete overhaul of the streaming economy, designed to fix the industry’s biggest flaws: passive algorithmic plays that pay artists pennies, streaming fraud that siphons revenue from genuine creators, and white noise/AI filler content that dilutes the royalty pool. Deezer’s ACPS is simple, transparent and radically fair, with three core rules that put artists first:
- Reward Genuine Fan Engagement: Artists earn a 2x boost for streams from fans who actively search for their music or discover it on human-curated playlists (not algorithmic suggestions). Artists with over 1,000 streams per month from 500 unique listeners earn an additional 2x boost — meaning these streams are worth 4x more than passive algorithmic plays. This rewards artists for building real fan bases, not just gaming algorithms.
- Eliminate Filler Content: Deezer removed all low-effort filler content (rain sounds, white noise, generic lo-fi) from its catalog and replaced it with non-royalty-generating original content, redirecting millions of euros in royalties to real musicians instead of content farms.
- Cap Streams to Fight Fraud: Each user’s streams are capped at 1,000 per month in the royalty calculation (the average user streams 600 times/month), eliminating streaming fraud (artists botting their own plays) and ensuring revenue is split fairly among all artists, not just those with fake streams.
The result: Deezer pays artists an average of **$0.0084 per stream** — nearly double Spotify’s rate ($0.003-$0.005), and close to TIDAL’s rate ($0.01284), with independent artists earning even more thanks to the engagement boosts. In 2025, Deezer partnered with SACEM (France’s leading performance rights organization) to extend the ACPS to publishing royalties, making it the first global streaming platform to apply fair pay rules to both recording and publishing rights. This is Deezer’s greatest legacy: it has proven that fair artist compensation is not a pipe dream, but a viable business model, and it has forced the entire industry to reevaluate how it values musical creativity. For artists, Deezer is more than a platform — it is a lifeline, a place where their work is seen, heard and fairly rewarded. For music lovers, it is a chance to support the artists they love with every stream, knowing their listen makes a real difference.
3.3 Hyper-Personalized Discovery: AI That Feels Human, Curation That Honors Taste
Deezer’s third core pillar is its unmatched focus on hyper-personalized, human-centric music discovery — a blend of cutting-edge AI and expert human curation that sets it apart from Spotify’s algorithmic homogeneity and TIDAL’s artist-led playlists. At the center of this is Flow, Deezer’s signature feature, which remains the gold standard for personalized streaming: an infinite, seamless stream of music that blends favorites, deep cuts and new discoveries with perfect pacing, no jarring genre shifts, and an uncanny ability to predict what the user wants to hear next. Flow is powered by Deezer’s proprietary AI, which learns from every listen, but it is guided by human curators who set the tone and ensure the AI’s suggestions align with real musical taste, not just data points.
Deezer also employs a team of professional music journalists, genre experts and curators who craft handpicked playlists for every genre, mood and occasion — from French chanson to Brazilian samba, jazz fusion to underground hip-hop — and write deep artist biographies and album reviews that celebrate music as an art form, not just a commodity. Unlike Spotify’s algorithmic playlists, which feel generic and interchangeable, Deezer’s playlists are intentional, passionate and unique, designed to introduce listeners to new music and deepen their connection to the artists they already love. For Deezer, music discovery is not a feature — it is a mission: to help listeners fall in love with music all over again, to connect them with artists they would never find on their own, and to make every listening experience feel personal and meaningful. This human touch is what makes Deezer special: it is a platform built by music lovers, for music lovers, and it shows in every playlist, every recommendation, every stream.
4. Corporate Resilience: Independent, Profitable & Global — Navigating the Streaming Wars (2023 – 2025)
Deezer’s journey has never been without its challenges: it operates in an industry dominated by two giants (Spotify and Apple Music), faces fierce competition from TIDAL and Qobuz in the Hi-Fi space, and has had to navigate the ups and downs of public markets and investor pressure. But what makes Deezer unique is its resilience: it has remained an independent, French-owned platform for 18 years, unacquired by tech giants or record labels, and it has built a sustainable business model that prioritizes profitability over endless user growth — a rarity in the streaming industry, where most platforms burn cash to chase market share.
In 2023, Deezer unveiled a bold new brand identity and doubled down on its core mission: fair artist pay, accessible Hi-Fi audio and personalized discovery. It struck new partnerships with Sonos and Mercado Libre, expanded its podcast catalog, and launched tools to help emerging artists grow their fan bases (including Deezer Next, a program that supports independent musicians). In 2024, Alexis Lanternier was appointed CEO, and he set a clear strategic direction: focus on direct subscriber growth (high-value users who pay Deezer directly, not through telecom partnerships), cut unnecessary costs, and double down on the ACPS model to attract artists and loyal fans alike. This strategy paid off in 2025: Deezer reported positive free cash flow for the first time in its history, a adjusted positive EBITDA of €2.1 million, and direct subscriber growth of 5.5% (to 5.3 million users), even as its partner subscriber base declined (a deliberate choice to prioritize quality over quantity).
Today, Deezer is a profitable, independent global platform with a diversified ownership structure: major shareholders include Access Industries (Warner Music Group’s parent company), Saudi Arabia’s Kingdom Holding Company, and institutional investors like T. Rowe Price, with no single entity holding a majority stake. It operates in 180+ countries (more than any other premium streaming service), has a catalog of over 120 million tracks, and counts 9.2 million premium subscribers — a smaller user base than Spotify, but a loyal, high-value one that values Deezer’s fairness, quality and personalization. Most importantly, Deezer has stayed true to its roots: it is still a French platform, still independent, still fighting for artists and music lovers alike. For Deezer, success is not about being the biggest — it is about being the best, the most fair, the most accessible, and the most beloved. And in that regard, Deezer has already won.
5. Technological Synergy: Deezer Connect & Hardware Integration — Bridging Streaming and Premium Audio
For a platform built on accessible Hi-Fi audio, seamless integration with premium home audio hardware is not just a feature — it is a necessity, and Deezer has long been a leader in bridging the gap between digital streaming and physical sound systems, with a focus on simplicity, accessibility and universal compatibility that aligns perfectly with its core mission. Deezer was one of the first streaming services to partner with Sonos (launching Deezer Elite in 2014), and it has since built partnerships with over 50 of the world’s leading audio brands, including Bang & Olufsen, KEF, Cambridge Audio, Devialet and Yamaha, ensuring its lossless FLAC audio is playable on every major high-end speaker, amplifier, DAC and soundbar on the market.
Deezer’s flagship hardware feature is Deezer Connect, a seamless casting tool that lets users stream lossless Hi-Fi audio directly from the Deezer app to any compatible audio device — no third-party software, no compressed audio, no loss of quality. Unlike Bluetooth, which compresses audio and degrades sound quality, Deezer Connect uses a direct Wi-Fi connection to deliver pure lossless FLAC audio to premium home audio systems, ensuring every note is played exactly as the artist intended it to be heard. For users of premium multi-room smart amplifiers (like your brand’s flagship offerings), Deezer Connect is a game-changer: it turns a streaming service into a true Hi-Fi experience, allowing listeners to access a global library of lossless music and play it on a world-class sound system with a single tap of a button. What makes Deezer Connect unique, however, is its accessibility: it is built into millions of affordable audio devices, not just ultra-expensive audiophile gear, meaning anyone with a love of great sound can enjoy lossless streaming on their home system — a perfect reflection of Deezer’s mission to make Hi-Fi audio available to everyone, not just the elite.
6. Standing Apart: Deezer vs. Spotify vs. TIDAL vs. Qobuz — The Four Pillars of Streaming Excellence (The Complete Comparison)
In the crowded landscape of premium music streaming, Deezer occupies a unique and irreplaceable position — a perfect middle ground between mass-market scale and niche audiophile purism, between algorithmic efficiency and human curation, between corporate dominance and independent fairness. It is the only major streaming service that excels at all four core pillars of modern music listening: accessibility, sound quality, artist fairness and personalized discovery, and it stands apart from its three biggest competitors in clear, distinct ways — a quartet of streaming excellence that each serve a vital role in the industry, and together represent the full spectrum of modern music listening. This is not a battle of “better or worse”; it is a battle of different strengths, and Deezer’s strength is its balance — a rare combination of features that makes it the perfect platform for nearly every music lover, from casual listeners to audiophiles, from pop fans to jazz purists, from emerging artists to global superstars.
✔ Deezer vs. Spotify: Accessibility & Fairness Over Scale
Spotify is the undisputed king of mass-market streaming: 675 million users, 230 million premium subscribers, algorithmic personalization and global scale. It offers basic lossless audio now, but it is built for convenience and affordability, not sonic perfection, and its artist royalties remain among the lowest in the industry ($0.003-$0.005 per stream). Spotify’s strength is its scale; its weakness is its lack of fairness and its generic, algorithm-driven discovery. Deezer is the antithesis of this scale-first model: it has a fraction of Spotify’s user base, but it offers lossless Hi-Fi audio for the same price, a far fairer royalty model for artists, and personalized discovery that feels human, not robotic. Spotify is for everyone; Deezer is for anyone who cares about how music sounds, how artists are treated, and how they discover new music — a platform that values quality over quantity, fairness over scale, and people over data.
✔ Deezer vs. TIDAL: Accessibility Over Ultra-Premium Exclusivity
TIDAL is the artist-owned Hi-Fi powerhouse: studio-grade MQA Masters (24-bit/352.8kHz), Dolby Atmos spatial audio, exclusive artist content and the highest royalty rates in the industry ($0.01284 per stream). TIDAL’s strength is its ultra-premium audio and artist advocacy; its weakness is its higher price point and its focus on mainstream pop/hip-hop exclusives, which limits its appeal to niche audiophiles. Deezer is TIDAL’s accessible counterpart: it offers lossless CD-quality audio for a lower price, a fair royalty model that rivals TIDAL’s, and personalized discovery that caters to all genres (not just mainstream pop). TIDAL is for the audiophile elite — those who want the absolute best sound quality and exclusive content; Deezer is for the everyday audiophile — those who want great sound, fair pay for artists, and a personalized experience, without the premium price tag.
✔ Deezer vs. Qobuz: Global Accessibility Over Pure Audiophile Purism
Qobuz is the French Hi-Res purist’s paradise: 24-bit/192kHz HiRes FLAC, no compressed audio, no ads, and the highest royalty rates in the industry (€0.01802 per stream). Qobuz’s strength is its ultra-high-res stereo audio and classical/jazz curation; its weakness is its limited global reach (available in 40+ countries) and its higher price point, which makes it a niche platform for serious audiophiles. Deezer is Qobuz’s global, accessible sibling: it offers lossless CD-quality audio (flawless for 99% of listeners), operates in 180+ countries, has a lower price point, and curates all genres equally — from classical to hip-hop, jazz to pop. Qobuz is for the stereo purist — those who demand 24-bit HiRes audio and nothing less; Deezer is for the global music lover — those who want great sound, fair pay for artists, and access to music anywhere in the world, no matter their location or budget.
The Ultimate Difference: Deezer is the only major streaming service that balances all of these priorities: it is global, accessible, fair to artists, offers great sound quality, and delivers personalized discovery that feels human. It is not the best at any one thing — but it is the best at everything together, a rare feat in an industry where platforms are forced to choose between scale, quality, fairness and accessibility. This balance is Deezer’s superpower, and it is what makes it irreplaceable.
This evolution of accessible lossless streaming has redefined the demand for premium audio hardware: discerning listeners no longer settle for basic sound systems, but seek out smart amplifiers and speakers that can fully reproduce the clarity of lossless FLAC audio, turning every casual listen into a true high-fidelity experience in homes worldwide.
7. A Legacy of Fairness & Access: The Unfinished Journey of a French Streaming Icon
Today, Deezer stands tall as one of the most important and influential streaming services in the world — an independent, French-born platform with an 18-year legacy of innovation, fairness and resilience, a platform that has never strayed from its core mission: to connect music lovers with great music, to pay artists what they deserve, and to make high-quality audio accessible to everyone, everywhere. It has 9.2 million loyal premium subscribers, operates in 180+ countries, offers a catalog of over 120 million tracks spanning every genre imaginable, and has achieved profitability for the first time in its history — a milestone that solidifies its position as a sustainable, independent player in an industry dominated by giants. It is a platform that delivers lossless Hi-Fi audio to millions of users, rewards artists for their creativity, and helps listeners discover new music in a way that feels personal and meaningful. It is a success story not just of business resilience, but of artistic integrity — proof that a streaming service can be profitable, popular and principled all at once.
Deezer’s journey is far from over. It continues to expand its global reach, adding new markets and new tracks to its catalog every month. It continues to innovate, refining its ACPS model to pay artists even more fairly, expanding its Deezer Connect partnerships to reach more audio hardware, and improving Flow to make personalized discovery even better. It continues to advocate for fair artist compensation, challenging the mainstream industry to do better by the creators who make music possible. And it continues to serve its core audience: the music lovers who refuse to compromise on sound quality, the artists who refuse to be undervalued, and the fans who believe that music is a universal language — one that should be accessible to everyone, everywhere, no matter their budget, their location, or their taste.
This is Deezer’s greatest legacy: it has proven that fairness and accessibility can coexist with profitability, that a streaming service can be independent and global, that great sound quality does not have to be a luxury, and that artists deserve to be paid for their work. It has proven that music is more than just a product — it is an art form, a universal language, a source of joy and connection — and that a streaming service’s job is to honor that art form, not exploit it. For the millions of music lovers who turn to Deezer every day to hear their favorite songs in lossless quality, to discover new music that speaks to them, and to support the artists they love, this is everything. Deezer is not just a streaming platform — it is a French icon, a champion of fairness, a pioneer of accessibility, and a love letter to music itself.
For every enthusiast who believes great music deserves great sound, fair artist recognition and global accessibility, Deezer’s journey is a testament to what is possible when passion and purpose lead the way — and we are proud to craft the hardware that brings this extraordinary audio vision to life in homes across every corner of the world.
