To quote the article:
Over the past two years, Wood has been busy mixing old and new records in Dolby Atmos, an audio format that lets engineers create a listening experience more immersive than traditional stereo by placing sounds around and above the listener. Working for a variety of labels, Wood has done Atmos mixes for the Supremes, the Pogues, Jennifer Lopez, Modest Mouse, Gwen Stefani and Soul Asylum — some 300-plus tracks in total, the equivalent of two dozen albums.
So a guy thats busy can punch out 24 Atmos albums in 2 years.
Thats the issue for me. I go and spend a whole lot of cash to install a gazillion speakers then all I have to play is a trickle of albums (from artists I have no interest in).Then more cash to rebuy whatever albums I like in Atmos format.
I have 5000 albums, evenly split between Blues and Jazz with maybe 50 Rock albums from non-mainstream artists (Rory Gallagher, Roy Buchanan, Robin Trower etc).
How many Blues album will be remastered in Atmos.... maybe a few dozen.
The last Great Remastering occurred for SACD and according to the SACD Bible
https://www.sa-cd.net, there are 85 Blues SACD's. Jazz is better served with 1436 but at least 70% of those are not of interest (i.e. they arent currently in my collection so never will be).
So what will happen is Atmos will attack all the usual suspects (DSOTM, Take Five, the usual gaggle of uninteresting breathy female lounge singers etc) but music lovers that arent main stream wont see any releases... so the ROI is basically zero.
Mono to Stereo was different..all the labels brought into that... Atmos... not so much.
