RE: Hate it on music DVDs

You may find that problem disappears with Blu-ray concert discs, or at least is significantly reduced. One thing that listening to movie soundtracks in uncompressed 5.1 LPCM or the new lossless compression Dolby and DTS formats has impressed me with is how full and rich the soundtrack sounds, and how thin the standard DVD 5.1 soundtracks sound in comparison. Both you and Ben are saying that you don't find 5.1 movie soundtracks thin but I can tell you that they actually do sound thin in comparison to those 3 new high definition audio formats.

I suspect your reservations about surround sound for concert discs will certainly diminish if not disappear with Blu-ray given my experience with movie soundtracks.
