Yeah. With the licensing and work involved with producing Atmos sound I doubt any of it is more than just PR/marketing.
Dolby: “Look how good Dolby Atmos is, Beyoncé makes her music with the technology!”
My boomer dad uses TIDAL and is convinced that it sounds much better than my YT Music. And it might have higher bits and mor channels, but we aren’t sitting in a home theater. It all sounds the same through nice stereo speakers or, in my case, my headphones.
I general most things on Tidal do sound better than YT or Spotify. One of the easiest ways to notice this is on a good car stereo system. Tidal needs to be set to hifi mode. Even on a good pair of over ear headphones the difference can be appreciated by some. Where it would be hard not to notice is on a larger system in a large room or hall played at high volume. The YT stream will start to get a “blaring” quality whereas the Tidal stream will sound more full and less harsh. You might even start to appreciate subtle instrumentals in a song you hadn’t realized were there at higher volumes.
