Not a big PJ fan, but gave it a listen in Atmos on Apple Music, and I wasn't impressed by the mix. Dark Matter has a much better mix and for me better songs too.

35,58$=35,87€ using Paypal shipped to Spain. It states zero rate 1,56$ (never heard it and no idea what this is) and standard rate 4,62$ (not a clue) plus 6,18$ in taxes though Im sure we will get hit for VAT
 
Just finish my 2nd listen to the streaming apple music version.
The experimental track like Bugs, Pry.to , stupid mob and aye davanita has more immersive benefit than others in this album.
Nothingman is shootingly haunting, the stereo track also did, but atmos makes it up couple level up.
Not your kind of demo atmos material, but some tracks give new feeling upon listening, I like Last Exit and Tremor Christ

As someone who's listened to Vitalogy probably 100+ times, it's hard for me to imagine what it would sound like in 2024 to someone not already familiar. For me, it's 99% nostalgia but even to this day I'll play this album once or twice a year.

No other releases on physical media that I'm aware of Steve.

Vitalogy is the sound of junior college, for me!
Load, by Metallica, also stands out.
 
Just received my copy of the Vitalogy Blu-ray from Ten Club. Packed in same oversized "book" as the original CD, but larger overall. Very thin and the booklet is useless as they took everything from the CD book and put it on 4 or so pages and it is totally un-readable.

Will listen soon.

Unsurprisingly, the most striking difference to me between the BD-A and streaming is the low end. It's much more pronounced on disc. According to MakeMKV, the resulting Atmos .mkv file is around 10.4 GB compared to total of approximately 318 MB streaming on Apple Music.

I haven't listened to the lossless stereo track on the disc or looked at any DR stats, but it's presented in 24/96 LPCM.
