Ben, the remark on the PS3 about it getting DTSHD, but it still can't bitstream, I am wondering what it matters if the sound format is decoded anyway? I don't see this as a downer at all, the only downer I see is not getting DTS MA to light up on a receiver.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.

I wondered the same thing, which is why I created a poll.

It looks like about 1/3 think bitstream is better.
