Wow, never heard of that. Seems to me if they have came out with 5.1 technology for a cd then they would have to compress the data more, decreasinig sound quality.

But with dvd audio it's the exact opposite. There is more compression on dvd audio than on Sonys new SACD format so it doesn't sound 'as good' (Still sounds great imo), but more room to add the extra information for 5.1 surround.

Plus most Dvd Audio discs come with lots of special effects and videos. Really neat stuff.
