The Who, The Kids are Alright DVD has a DTS soundtrack. The last couple of songs are amazing.
Disc 2 is very informative in telling how the Video and Audio was restored. Turn it up to 11.
No 18 in the Hall of fame  I have simple tastes; I am content to settle for the best: GIK monster bass panels, rear wall. QNAP TVS 471i3. Roon into DSP5200SE via 210/ 218 zone... Explorer 2. Bluesound Pulse 2, Mini & Flex. 596v1, 518, Foxsat HD, Sony BDP, Pioneer 5090, 2 Chromecast's for LRB videos. MS200 to F80 for a Roon zone

BT - Monster OST. It is a sublime piece of work in DTS 5.1 (only wish there was a lossless version) and the production and dynamic range is first class. The use of surround here is designed to add tension, as fits the subject matter of the movie itself. What I love about this is he scored the album to run as a continuous piece of music. If I'm in the right mood, I can sit with my eyes closed for the entire score and just let myself be carried on the 2 hour journey.
Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells. Another DTS 5.1 which I really must listen to again. It's superb music, of course, but the use of surround is complimentary rather than distracting. Very immersive and enveloping. Again, superb production and dynamic range.
Hans Zimmer - Inception OST. A more subtle use of surround here but worthy of a listen.
Michael Jackson - This is It. Not really multichannel music as such, but it is 5.1 and the production is top of the pack.
Coldplay - Ghost Stories Live. Again, not really surround but another phenomenal piece of hifi. Quite a contrast to the terrible live audio they used to belt out at the O2 10 years ago or so.

Can anyone recommend a good source for multichannel FLAC downloads please?
Many which come up during internet searches look less than kosher.
Also, what, if anything, prevents the purchaser cloning and sharing the download? Is there a digital watermark or one-time key? I am thinking about how I might archive such downloads.
In the spirit of Spinaltap, I would like to confirm that I am not involved in the corrupt theft of a global sport.
