Listening to in Dolby Atmos Streaming, via Tidal/Apple/Amazon

[Cheezmo]

Can't believe such a major release like Coldplay's Moon Music is such a screw up. Featured album in the spatial audio page, preview tracks were in Atmos but release is stereo only. That is leaving money on the table given that Apple pays more for Atmos streams and when do you think that album is getting the most streams? Now when it is just released.

Not to mention there is a extended version of the album listed that gives you an error message when you click on it.

Wow.

No error message here in Germany for the extended version, but still only lossless.

Unfortunately not the original version but close enough.

Upgraded just yesterday, and that very idea crossed my mind as well... Then again, I had the sound nivelization (or whatever it's called) function on, unwillingly.... Gonna compare some titles with their hard copy counterparts.

I’m convinced it’s better especially listen to some of those great Steven Wilson mixes like Chic - Le Freak, also others reporting clear improvements on Reddit

Gotta say I really enjoyed ABBA - 'Gimme, Gimme, Gimme' in 5.1, great mix

Polar opposite was Motley Crue covering 'Fight For Your Right' by The Beastie Boys. Why cover that song? Cringeworthy attempt......

Looks like we might be getting some John Prine in Atmos soon. Several of the early albums on Oh Boy show as unavailable now in my Apple Music library but when I look at the greyed out placeholders, they now show as Dolby Atmos.

Lost Dogs, Missing Years, Fair & Square, Aimless Love, German Afternoons, & In Spite of Ourselves.
