My impression is that cooperations these days facilitates a lot of practical research to attain an eventual patent and reap the benefits of the scientists' achievements.

It isn't research, but I was at a party the other day and this women who works at a record company specialising in classical music said that an classical music app with high quality recordings didn't exist.

A company called Grammofy tried to do this, it was good, but then they ran out of money. They’re back in some capacity but now tied to Spotify.

TIDAL/Spotify have classical music, though I'm not sure if FLAC/320Kbps is what she meant by high quality recordings.

I think a lot of it needs to be remastered for digital, she might mean that.
