If I had limitless money, me. Purely because I believe the guys who say that a spherical encoding of the acoustic sound field would be the most realistic (for recording live music). But there is virtual no such material available anyway.

There must be loads of B-format recordings in existence as session tapes (because that's the default format of the original Soundfield microphone) but (probably) none ever got as far as a release in a decodable format.
