Marc,
Question:
Is the XRCD format considered comparable to, say, FLAC high-rez files streamed from Qobuz
or Tidal?

No.
XRCDs are CDs, so 16-bit/44.1kHz data and not high resolution. I have many of them that I
cherish, and they sound truly great, because of great care went into their creation. You
can read about some of the details here. - Marc Mickelson
