MQA was a flop. For better or worse. I expect to see Atmos follow suit.
What happen to MQA on Tidal?
After listening to Tidal only on my phone the last few weeks, I went to stream on my home system but soon realized all my MQA tracks were no longer showing up and the MQA parameters were absent in my streaming settings. I see Tidal is in "administration" (Chapter 11???). One of the main reasons I subscribed to Tidal was MQA and purchased a DAC that could decode the format. I think I should have at least been informed by Tidal if it was cancelling MQA. Any thoughts?
I know a lot of people hate (hated) MQA, but like any format I have listened to (Vinyl, CD, SACD, FLAC, MQA, etc.) , some things sound great and others on a plain old red book CD sounds better.

They have talked about moving to FLAC with MQA going bankrupt. https://www.headphonesty.com/2023/04/mqa-files-bankruptcy-tidal-switches-hi-res-flac/ |
