where going from mono to DD5.1, is in no way losing any part of the soundPeople in this thread have cited numerous examples where the conversion from mono to DD 5.1 has indeed resulted in "losing" part of the sound -- because it was replaced by new sounds. Noted examples include Superman, The Terminator and Jaws.
If you don't like the P&S analogy, consider the other one that's been offered: colorization. Adding color to Citizen Kane would in no way "delete" any part of the image -- but it would sure as hell change the film into something else.
