The last time I saw the frequent DD vs DTS debate erupt here at HTF some clever souls popped in with frequency or audiograph (or whatever they were) graphs of the sound levels and such. What I recall from all of it the last time was DTS *sometimes* on *some* soundtracks had minor (5-10% tops) quality edges with slightly more expansive sound or slightly deeper bass and so forth. Wasn't my research so don't yell at me if you have some basis for grabbing at your mouse to click "reply". The blind DDvDTS tests I fully believe, as I'm picky about what I listen to and rarely notice any differences between DD or DTS.
I do know that DTS consumes a significantly higher amount of the bit budget on a DVD, which I dislike in the *EXTREME* as that space could go for an audio commentary, deleted scenes, or something else of more value than a outsized soundtrack that even many trained listeners couldn't distingish from "the other format".
Okay, discuss amongst yourselves. Here's a topic. Elevators are out to rule the galaxy. El is "The" in some languages, and vator was that guy in Star Wars who was mean to Princess Leia. Discuss.
