So I guess you can't play this on a normal CD player. I wouldn't buy it anyway. The current estate is awful | |

I really DGAF about this niche format. Why dont they invent a vinyl Blu Ray audio when they're at it? You Can take good note that if it s released solely without the SDE, then it means there s still no PR SDE in the can. | |

They'll keep stringing fans along with promises of "something big" until Celebration, where they finally announce what we've all been waiting for.... Live At Syracuse: Dolby Atmos Edition, both on BluRay and in select theaters | |

if the atmos mix was anything other than totally awful, this would be an instant purchase for me. unfortunately that is not the case. the mix fucking sucks. | |

I'd be willing to bet money that the Blu Ray will sound better than the streaming version. Either way I thought "Beautiful Ones" sounded great on my set up (7.1.4 Atmos). I just preordered. | |

The estate really knows how to make money by targeting niche markets. Wasting money on creating and selling an Atmos mix that most people won't even buy. What's next LaserDisc? | |

Honestly not a fan of the Atmos mix. Also don't really see the point of audio bluray. | |

This release was announced almost nine months ago. Despite literally nothing happening, you lot still couldn't retain that tiny bit on info and now get upset. . Also, this is a shit release. Not because it is PR, because it is a barebones release with no bonuses, e.g. officially released extended versions etc. in Hi-Res. And because the Dolby Atmos mix is pretty bad. . But at least we're getting the original 1984 PR master in Hi-Res. Hopefully it's the fixed version, and not the one with the bad version of TBO that was originally released through HDTracks. . They could have easily made this into a must-have by including a couple of previously unreleased tracks and/or versions. | |

My take is that this is the first release to be announced. They will keep the SDE announcement until the celebration and make a big thing about it | |
