Not confused at all; DVDs have Linear PCM; what's your problem, do you have ...

...angular PMS or what? ;^)

From Webopedia:

"PCM is also the usual digital method used for music audio playback of music CDs. While supported by DVDs, DVDs have a greater volume so they use Linear PCM, which has a higher sampling rate — up to 24-bit at a sampling rate of 96 kHz."

That, Dolby AC3 and DTS (5.1 & 6.1) are the only audio formats to which I indicated having ready access in my rig. You can criticize my "poor unfortunate system" for not incorporating the latest and theoretically greatest whiz-bang digital Hi-Rez formats if you like, but I politely suggest that you avoid the condescending "confusion" rhetoric. I do keep current on the technologies and know what's what even if I don't wish to pay first class for a seat on the early adopter express.
