From the wiki:
"In the consumer (home theater) market, AC-3 and DTS are close in terms of audio performance. When the DTS audio track is encoded at its highest legal bitrate (1,536 kbit/s), technical experts rank DTS as perceptually transparent for most audio program material (i.e., indistinguishable to the uncoded source in a double blind test.)"
I believe this means that the only way you'd be able to tell the difference between high bitrate, spdif DTS and those HD streams is through the miracle of placebo.

I am back again...this time with a question about the MCE receiver
I am looking at this one, but noticed at the bottom it says that I need XP Media Center Edition.
Will I still be able to use this with a stripped down version of XP SP3 and EventGhost, or even Vista if I decide to go that route?
