Not the case with me. I didn´t say that player-decoding is "inferior" in sound/quality wise. I just personally want all the options that are available, and in this case it means also "bitstream". I guess it´s not possible with PS3, but at some day I´ve the player that will do both (and I can then "decide myself" what is best for my needs etc).
But yeah, it´s also "just me"-type of thing. I just can´t buy some "older" or "cheaper" receiver with HDMI 1.1/1.2 IF 1.3-models are available. I just have to get one of those. Can´t help it , I´m afraid.
And with that 1.3-receiver, I don´t have to worry about things (well, there´s always *something*, I guess..). If I want bitstream in the future, my receiver can handle it. It´s not that PS3 will be my last BD-player (but that receiver will have to "last" for several years).
