Where do I find high quality music (feddit.dk)

Hi All, I recently got myself some proper headphones and DAC but now I realise I don't have much high quality music , my collection is mostly flac but only very few higher than 48k. So where do you get your music? does it even matter beyond that?

It shouldn't matter. If the FLAC is at 48k it means it will be able to reproduce sounds up to 24kHz, which is beyond human hearing.

My understanding is that higher rates (like 96k) are only useful during music production, in order to prevent aliasing. But for listening 48k is all you need.
