Will 5.1 be obsolete in a few years?

172.131.97.138

I'm somewhat worried that the newer formats like 6.1,7.1,9.1 etc will displace my current 5.1 set up and am wondering if it will be obsolete. Are a lot of inmates here selling there 5.1 processors and going to the new and improved versions? The market is changing so fast these day's. Is the audio side of things(SACD and DVDA) going to go with more than 5.1? If so I guess I'm screwed with only a 5.1 system with my Yammie 2095 and current dvd player. At least the amps I've bought will be able to make the transition, I hope.
