There is so much money in licensing revenues from new formats (licensing is the core business of companies like Dolby and DTS, among others) that it is unlikely we will see an end to new formats.
Even though there are many audio firms and designers that wish for the days when they could design new audio gear without the need to pay licensing fees and wait for certification of their products before they can come to market.
I don't know if that holds true any more - we've spoken to people who were in that aspect of the business at Dolby and DTS and they all say that the licensing model is dead. Dolby practically had to give the Atmos decoder to theaters - for them it's about market share - loss-leaders.
"What we lose on every sale we make up for on volume!"I don't know if that holds true any more - we've spoken to people who were in that aspect of the business at Dolby and DTS and they all say that the licensing model is dead. Dolby practically had to give the Atmos decoder to theaters - for them it's about market share - loss-leaders.
With that comment, I think you may have Kal 'over a barrel' .....Kal, NEVER heard of "ON TAP?"
That's big bad "Dave the Bitch"!Uh oh -Big Bad Dave out on the loose - I love it!

There must be something wrong with me, I just can’t seem to bring myself to say thatThat's big bad "Dave the Bitch"!
Seems they are a little behind the times and no Hi-Def Surround, maybe the LoC doesn’t listen to any
I’m sure there’s lots of storage tech still to come, what about that new Holographic (actually been in development since the 60’s) or even organic DNA Storage Has a New Molecule-Sized Competitor
Ultimately, nothing is bullet proof though.
Until surround becomes dumb, easy and universally compatible it will always be a fringe market.
Is Joe public going to understand this:
or this
My sister & her husband have just completely redone their lounge, and have even fitted Atmos speakers in the ceiling (she only let him have 2!), do they listen to surround music, sadly no, will they ever, sadly no, but they and their kids watch BDs in surround with music. Oh Well.
I'm regarded as the lunatic in my family as I'm the only one with a surround system for music!
Only because I am short & stumpy ...... I don't have AtmosAnd thus, the ONLY one in your family with helicopters flying OVER YOUR HEAD!
Goes well with English Tea Biscuits, matey!
