Neil Young appears to be shifting his digital music gears away from his high-fidelity Pono project towards a form of high-resolution streaming. Young's Pono high-fidelity digital music player retailed for $399 US. In 2016, upon the demise of Pono music store partner Omnifone, "we began work with another company to build the same download store. Finding a way to deliver the quality music without the expense and to bring it to a larger audience has been our goal," Young said. Young added that "every recording I have ever released will soon be available in Xstream high-resolution quality at my complete online archive."
