Larsson said:Maybe.
Anyway, fuck roadrunner.
Seriously that was the kind of silly comment I expect from a Rage Against the Machine fan.

x_OPETH_x said:alright, most of what's been said is true, but you're forgetting another key factor - not only is a 5.1 mix more immersive, but it separates every instrument into a separate channel....(typically though, vocals and atmospheric elements like keys and SFX will dominate the front and center channels). this makes every individual aspect of the music EXTREMELY clear sounding, and very easy to differentiate from the other stuff that's going on.
basically, in a well-engineered 5.1 mix, all the subtle nuances of every instrument are brought right up front, and in your face....
the thing is, CD is such a stale, obsolete, and extremely limited format...
a typical CD-DA contains 16-bit, 41000 hz PCM stereo sound... good, if you're in 1990...
a DVD-A, in comparision, has a sampling rate of 192 khz, at 24 bits (in multi channel)
in laymans terms, this means that a CD is cutting off alot of those natural acoustics and intonations that instruments and the human voice produce in real life...... High-resolution audio captures all those sounds (even though they might not be technically "audible", since the human ear is only sensitive up to 20 khz, they still produce slight phase distortions and subtle nuances...)
it's really hard to convincingly describe...you've gotta hear it for yourself... a good start would be either Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, and the aforementioned DTS/DVD-A mixes of PT's In Absentia and Deadwing (both those albums have won awards for their surround-sound mixes, and trust me...they are BREATHTAKING...the way the album was originally meant to be heard)

Hm, isn't it supposed to come out in july?
