Hi

Does anyone know if either of the above services have more Dolby Atmos tracks than the other? I'm an Amazon girl but wonder if Apple have more tracks?

Hi @SarahN,

I’ve had a look but can’t see exactly how many Dolby Atmos tracks either service has. I did see a mention of Amazon having over 1000 tracks in Dolby Atmos, but not sure if this is correct or just internet speculation.

I think in this case it would be better to ask the Music Service provider themselves as, from a user side, you’ll need to find them manually or in a Spatial Audio Playlist, which is actually what Amazon recommend.

I don’t use either of these services myself, so other users who do may have more of an idea of the volume of Dolby Atmos tracks, however I hope this information helps!

I suspect that the number of atmos tracks in each service is going to be updating on a fairly regular basis.  Also, some tracks are not going to be well produced, so a raw count might not be the best indicator of which service is better for atmos content.
