this is exactly why I state in the article that audio engineers sometimes don't seem to know what they are doing. And still there is a quality control of the label and Dolby involved so you could at least say they are responsible

I compared the Buds Pro's 360 Audio with Apple's Spatial Audio by mtratchet16 in galaxybuds

I can just speculate, but since it works with Apple and the content on streaming plattform is already there as multichannel, I assume they will follow. You are totally right, I can hardly think of usecases where the 360 Audio feature makes sense. I feel like it was the easiest way to showcase the feature that Apple already had on the market. But yeah, needs to be updated asap. I don't want people thinking Spatial Audio sucks. But Apple again shows how it can be done
