Dolby Atmos - Corporate Power Grab - Greed

Definite learning experience here...

"I'm going to start by saying that I have a Dolby Atmos studio that conforms to spec. From an audio perspective, I love Atmos. It opens up mixes and is like a breath of fresh air to a lot of catalog material being remixed. The audio itself is one subject. That being said, the marketing push (i.e. requirement now) from Apple and others regarding Atmos mixes is definitely a power grab, no question about it. Stereo was never "licensed". It was a natural outgrowth of the technology of the time. It became a "de-facto" standard. Musically, it is the most popular reproduction format and doesn't require additional subscriptions or licenses to listen. THIS is where it starts to get all "conspiracy". It's all about the licensing, and getting people to pay a subscription (of course) to listen to Atmos content on their devices. And this might be in the form of a software add on or update, or a different subscription you have to have, or whatever - but I believe that is the ultimate goal. 

Technically, you can deliver a stereo mix through an Atmos formatted deliverable. Just because you can send stuff to 12 speakers doesn't mean you have to. But that doesn't address the fact that Atmos deliverables are now being required no matter what, and you can't say shit about it. Dolby is becoming the Live Nation/Ticketmaster of audio, it seems. And what a shame, because Dolby used to have a more decent reputation than being basically acting like a mobster now." -Bill Vincent

"You know what Atmos folded down to two speakers is? Stereo.... And that's how 99.9% of consumers will experience it. The fact that Apple has said that their curated playlists will be Atmos only tells me everything I need to know. This is an attempt at gatekeeping. The majors are mad that a kid can produce and easily distribute a hit record from their bedroom." -joegac57 (YouTube Viewer)

"As someone who designs Atmos mixing rooms and private cinemas, I 100% agree with you. The experience of immersive music and soundtracks is honestly surreal when listenening in the right environment. However, you need to spend hundreds of thousands to get that experience and its only an option for the very wealthy or for production studios doing Film and TV. It's hard enough to get people to buy a nice set of stereo speakers, so its almost impossible to get consumers to go out and buy an atmos rig." -Durosai (YouTube Viewer)

Dr. Greer's Groundbreaking National Press Club Event! June 12th, 23

Absolutely incredible. Hugely important and groundbreaking information here. Potential game changer, one way or the other...

I also have to say, that I was stunned when Dr. Greer mentioned (about towards the end of the video) something that I can totally relate to myself. It was about his Uncle working for Northrop Grumman on Long Island! (Grumman Aerospace was once, by far, the largest employer on Long Island, with many people from different families, including several members within my own family, including myself, as a contract employee, having worked for them). My Uncle Pat (God rest his soul) also worked for Grumman for quite some time, and before they merged with another large defense contractor, and officially changed their name from Grumman Aerospace to Northrop Grumman. Now what is significant about this, is that my Uncle (when I was still a kid, and way before I worked for the company myself) goes back to the list of crimes that the attorney discusses (also about three quarters into the video) in particular, the Bank Fraud thing. I can personally attest to this to be true, as someone who was not involved myself, but know, in my Uncle's case for example, where he was directly involved with another individual, and some high level executives at Grumman, in a very complicated Bank Fraud scheme, for which he (and the other individual whose name I did not mention) eventually went to prison! From what I understand, when the FBI offered to cut a deal with him if he provided the names of the executives at Grumman who were involved, he refused! And then, after burning a bunch of documents in our backyard (I will never forget it) took off and disappeared for a couple of years, before he came back and turned himself in... 

There is more to this story, that I am not going to get into here, except to say, that it was BIG, and allot of people were involved. Grumman had a reputation (known by allot of people, particularly on Long Island) as being a VERY corrupt company, involved in allot of sh*t. For instance, just one more example of this, was when the Feds arrested the President of the company himself, for an embezzlement related scheme. There is much more to the company (and the corruption) that I am also not going to get into here, except to say, that I was all of a sudden strangely targeted by some very sick and malevolent individuals myself, after leaving the company, and then, subsequently finding this very bizarre message on my answering machine, after I had gone to the police. (I was one of the good guys). But that is all I am saying about it, at this time, for various reasons, that I am also not going to get into here... 

My point basically was, is that I was just shocked about what Greer had mentioned about his own Uncle working for the company as well, back on Long Island, of all places! Not sure exactly what to make of it, at this time, but I would think, that Greer would HAVE TO know about at least some of the things I mentioned above, in relation to this very big and influential Aerospace, Military/Defense Contractor. 

As, I personally know myself (and have a VERY good idea) about what goes on within the Military Industrial Complex, and that, many of these individuals, and those involved with them (including allot of the sh*t that goes on within many of these dark financial institutions) are basically, criminally insane, and EXTREMELY dangerous...
