>>What's "cool" about 96/24 DTS? It's incredibly compressed, six channels of 96kHz audio crammed into 1.5Mbs.<<What's "cool" about it is that it sounds better than Dolby Digital, and its backward-compatible with regular DTS decoders. Plus, it can be coupled with full-length, full-motion video on current DVD-V, unlike MLP/PPCM.
>>You're flat out wrong about it being "playable on any DVD-Video with a DTS decoder"<<
And how is that? DTS 96/24 is fully-backward compatible. Your assertion is flat out wrong.
>>FYI you can get all of the above onto a DualDisc with CD compatibility too.<<
On a DualDisc? A 4.7 GB DualDisc? No, you can't. What Teresa listed won't fit.
DVD-Audio 96kHz 24 Bit Multi-Channel 5.1 Surround playable on any DVD-Audio player.
DTS 96kHz 24 Bit Multi-Channel 5.1 Surround playable on any DVD-Video with a DTS decoder.
DVD-Video 96kHz 24 Bit 2 Channel Stereo playable on any DVD-Video or DVD-Audio player.
