Because it adds another dimension to the sound you're experiencing and gives you a whole new appreciation for the medium.
This combined with binaural audio should be the future of audio storytelling.
Give this a try with any normal headphone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUDTlvagjJA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUDTlvagjJA
- smoldesu 5y agoThe barber shop is not spatial audio. It's a static stereo mix, and a terrible example of how the medium actually functions. I know what good spatial audio sounds like, too: I've used 6DOF with headphones and fancy Atmos filters, and it works great in VR. Everywhere else though, it's just distracting. We have lost the stems to probably 95% of all music ever made. If all of our old music sounds bad in spatial audio, how will it ever hope to become the new standard?
- aaomidi 5y agoIt literally has invoked a wow from everyone I've shared it with in real life. I'm glad you've had a much better experience, but lol this doesn't mean this is bad. The pretentiousness in your comment is outstanding.
- defaultname 5y agosmoldesu is pathologically anti-Apple, so the fact that this thread related to Apple instantly guaranteed their pissing and moaning, dismissive response. Don't take it as a sincere argument.
- smoldesu 5y agoI've never seen someone get so mad about another person's opinion before. You don't have to reply, and HN even lets you downvote my comments if you really think they're that detrimental to the overall narrative. Otherwise though, I don't really know what to tell you. Maybe there's a blocking/filtering extension that could help you if I'm being that disruptive to your daily browsing.
