Eh, I kinda understand it. If they want to encourage incorporation of the tech they kinda need to offer and incentive. It’s either this or more promotion towards tracks that have it.

But if it truly is superior, won't I as a consumer favor those recordings with spatial whatever it is by listening to them more, thereby encouraging the producers with more money because of the increased streaming over the others? Surely making such recordings a favored class where payments are concerned is just a form of double dipping?

Well I mean it isn’t like they advertise each album as being Spatial Audio. You likely aren’t gonna go out of your way to find it.
