Download vs streaming, high quality vs lossless

If I set my downloads to 'high quality' (to save disk space) and my streaming to 'lossless', is there a way to force Music to stream lossless when I'm online instead of defaulting to the local 256 kbps file?

Hi,

No. If the track has been downloaded as 256 Kbps, it will play as 256 Kbps.

A suggestion - create a separate music library where you can stream you music and keep your original library intact.
