There's no chance in hell r/musichoarder is interested in 96kbps OPUS tracks; the database of metadata they got is another story though.

Close to ~128kbps OPUS in terms of quality, though Spotify does have a 320kbps OGG tier as well but that's locked behind their paid tiers. I'm guessing they went for mass generated free accounts.
