As a late arrival, wondering if anyone has come up with a comprehensive list of streaming and/or hard media titles in Atmos. If so, direction would be most appreciated.
Not… really. This site does have a pretty comprehensive
Physical surround releases poll which acts a pretty great guide as to what has been released in surround, and @haikubass’s fantastic
Yearly Release Threads collate each years surround releases and notes if they’re in Atmos (and links to previous threads for previous years). Those yearly release threads would be the closest to a comprehensive list… but with 5.1 and quad, and the occasional download mixed in.
As for streaming, the main complaint we all have here is the streamers don’t do a great job of having a section of just *everything* in Atmos, it’s usually a curated page by the streamer’s Editorial Team, like Apple’s
Spatial Audio “genre” page. There is however, a fantastic solution from Apple app developer Ben Dodson who has made a
Apple Music Atmos Search Engine, and
The Spatial Audio Database which is a daily updating list of tracks/albums uploaded in Dolby Atmos or Dolby Audio (what seems to be Dolby’s new name for legacy surround systems; 7.1, 5.1, quad, 3.0, etc). It’s done through a combination of scraping the Apple Music API as well as his
Apple Music Library Tracker app, which notifies you of any changes to your library (mostly data tags, the year of release and so on, but occasionally it catches Atmos upgrades and when Apple Music falls into it’s nasty habit of splitting up albums for no obvious reason)
