To whom this may concern: Qobuz is now officially available in Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden.
In Denmark, the monthly streaming plan (up to FLAC 192 KHz) is DKK 149,99 per month, cheaper if you go for a full year.

Wow! Any idea how to get this working with B&O products? Do they need google cast to work?
Airplay or CC, from the Qobuz apps.

Note: Qobuz is working to intergrate direct UPnP stream from their app also. But this is in beta and doesn't work (well) with B&o.
Thank you for your answers! I will try the easiest way first. Bluetooth from my mac over to my Beosound Moment. It sounds really good, and the qobuz says the output is 24/44 - so maybe it is? Not sure what happens to the signal when it leaves the mac:)

With Bluetooth in the chain, you are not getting more than CD quality, at best, if ever you are using AptX codec. The Moment doesn't support AptX, so the output is running at mp3 level quality.
You should invest in a good DAC, and feed your Moment via RCA, result will be much better, currently you are loading your internet bandwidth and paying HiRes sub to Qobuz for nothing.
Mac (with Audirvana) to DAC (via USB) to Moment (via RCA)

But the additional dac is not necessary
See next post how to
@Carpola - How can I solve this without a additional dac?
Robert_A:@Carpola - How can I solve this without a additional dac?
The same if you have a BS35, A6, M3, M5, Essence mkII, Harmony or Core (Shape)
Start Audirvana, select the speaker with "wifi" (on the right, below), set the DAC on ASIO, check the Beosound Moment, you can change the settings for streaming to the Moment by selecting ">".
Then play something on Audirvana. The Moment will start and play the chosen track.
Carolpa: Robert_A:@Carpola - How can I solve this without a additional dac?For the Moment you do NOT need the proposed connection with a DAC. I just double checked it.

Audirvana must be running on your MAC/PC to controll it with the app.
the Moment is the "Active Audio Device"
"Find my way" is played on the Moment
Thanks! My problem now is that the Moment don't show up in the list of Active Audio Device.. In the list I only have MacBook Speakers. The Moment and Mac are on the same wifi...
I only have a trial on Audirvana to check that I can make it work - maybe that's the problem?

Robert_A:My problem now is that the Moment don't show up in the list of Active Audio Device.
Audirvana in my settings show all devices.
Note: on a MAC you will not see an ASIO driver; don't bother to select something, just select the Moment if presented
The Moment won't show up, but I will keep nerding with this until I find a solution! Thank you so much for helping me out with this!

turn on UPnP in your router (it should work without, but it will speed up recognize UPnP devices in your network)
try a wired test setting (main difference between your and mine setup)
