I am wondering if there will ever be any 7.1 lossless hd dvds or blue Rays in the near future if any at all. All of the research I do points to only 5.1 audio. The reason I ask is that I just bought two more surrounds for my theater for this prospect, but the more I look around I only see blue ray and hd dvds with just 5.1 What's the deal? Can anyone give me some insight into this problem? I keep seeing "up too 7.1 audio", but no mentioning of this actually occuring on any dvds. I have not yet bought an Hd Dvd or blue ray #1 because they are expensive, but mostly becuase none have hdmi 1.3 and I will need another reciever to for this later down the road, but can anyone tell me if blue ray or hd dvd is planing on using 7.1 or should I just have keep my 5.1 setup?
