There's a big difference between the potential for better quality and what actually ends up happening for most people. Their equipment matters, the type of entertainment matters (Family Guy is not funnier in HD audio, no matter what people might claim), the range of hearing for the people watching TV matters, and a ton of people have existing libraries with thousands of files that don't even contain HD audio tracks.
I don't doubt the ability of the format having more quality. I doubt that most people will care.
