MS claim you can have a next gen experience with the new Elite & HD-DVD addon drive but what they avoid telling you is that the Elite will only output next gen lossless audio as stereo - yep only 2 channels. If you want to watch HD-DVD movies in 5.1 surround then the audio is dumbed down using other lossy formats.

If you think you won't hear a difference think again, go read what other users have to say about lossless pcm in 5.1 & 7.1.
