In an ideal world, there can be one collective marketplace for many surround and immersive formats, but in the meantime, many tend to make do with buying physical albums, ordering Blu-rays and CDs from sites like. A streaming service that is restricted to the ATMOS format may just further increase the difficulty that fans have in finding immersive music, as there is such a large variety of formats that would be excluded. There are rumors about Dolby Digital launching an ATMOS-streaming service soon, but fans will have to wait to see when that happens and what immersive formats that will include. Ultimately, low demand and technological difficulty prevent many sites and marketplaces from being able to justify keeping up their already-limited online distribution of surround sound formats. There is of course some streaming available from a select number of services, including Tidal for one, but lossless quality is difficult to guarantee. Not for lack of trying – in fact there have been several efforts over the years, including Japan’s Onkyo Music which is closing up their Dolby TrueHD 5.1 online shop only this year.
As a result, there is no single, widespread, popular solution for downloading surround sound music.
