Hello

I want to buy Dolby Access > Dolby Atmos from Microsoft Store.

I personally have 3 computers, 1 Desktop, 1 Office Laptop and 1 Gaming Laptop.
They are all using and linked with the same Microsoft Account and Microsoft Email.

Can I buy and use 1 copy of Dolby Access - Dolby Atmos on all my computers together?
Or I need to buy separate copies which will be very bad and expensive.

Pls let me know.
Regards

I have not tried simultaneously, but i have installed it on 3 of my machines (old laptop, new laptop, desktop) and was able to get them working in each of them.
the old laptop is no longer functional, but its there in the other 2. I usually dont use both of them at the same time, so not sure about a simultaneous usage scenario

I think if you login with same ms account on all 3 machines it should work.

PS: having bought it, the difference is really subtle. I wouldn't buy it again. I find that my creative usb dongle soundcards have much nicer free features

I don't know how and to what extent anyone can simulate object based sound only in software. I trialled it once and found no difference. Better yet you can get the same effects for free.

My laptop came with a DTS Sound Unbound license and DTS Headphone:X sounds better than Windows Sonic but at the end of the day it is not something that will make an enormous difference.

The spatial demos generally sound more awesome but you are unlikely to get much of a difference in regular usage.
