Known ways to stream music in higher resolutions?

So, there's Tidal, but it's expensive. What else is there? Basically, I have a large CD collection that I've ripped as Apple Lossless to an iTunes library. I'm also a user of Apple Music. Whenever I play a CD or listen to a lossless file, it sounds noticeably better than an Apple Music stream. However, I keep on using Apple Music for convenience, and because in some environments the difference doesn't matter. What I'd really love would be if Apple would offer their Music Match service (making your own collection available for streaming) in a higher resolution (lossless CD quality or greater). This probably isn't going to happen. Most consumers are content with what's available. Are there other solutions I'm not aware of? Perhaps the answer is to stick with lower res streaming on the go, and make sure I've got a higher res listening environment happening at home...

Back in like 2011 I had to convert all the music myself using DBPowerAmp, but looks like now Google Play does it for you.

Maybe upload some - stream for free your music/start a free trial and let us know what you think?

Nothing is gained, really.
