I've been living with 2 ch and HT for awhile now.

While redoing my basement I bought a 32" tv with a built-in blu ray player for my bedroom. (Musical Fidelity stereo integrated, Meadowlark Shearwater speakers)I'm pretty happy with just a 2 channel set up for almost all of my tv/movie watching, but there's really something great about a surround system with a good sci/fi flick!
If you have the room and the funds, go ahead! A decent audio/video receiver can be had for around $800, and the Denon line is pretty easy to set up. They have a built-in EQ that measures the room acoustics and adjusts the channel level accordingly. Most manufacturers have it these days, but I've always preferred Denon for overall sound, reliability, and ease of use.
