Comprehensive!

So to recap, you prefer DTS too?

I obviously don't have your proffessional knowledge on the subject, so it tends to boil down to such criteria as, which format renders mumbling/whispering better/which format makes my windows rattle more. DTS for me all the way. Or to put it another way, now, when I drop a new disc in the tray, I select the DTS soundtrack automatically.

It is perhaps remiss on my part, but having done the subjective comparisons a few times some while ago, I always came to the same conclusion. Now, I prefer to watch a new film as soon as I get it and rightly or wrongly, go with what I know and select DTS.

While you're about it. What discs do contain the full bitrate sound tracks and with the same master possibly? Any of the Superbit stuff for example? I buy them for their picture quality (MIB II ) but the soundtracks have always impressed.
