Dave says:  I think this is a very interesting topic that I do not know much
about.  Could someone please answer the following:

1.)  What type of media(s) are DVD-A amd DTS-Audio-CD recorded on, and where
can one obtain them?  What type of drive is used for recording?
2.)  How does one record to optimise for these formats (i.e. "taping in
surround")?  Are more mics used?  In what config?

I will also add that even with my limited knowledge of these particular
formats, I agree with what john said about needing to begin with an optimal
source in order to reap the benefits of these advanced formats.

Thanks,
Dave
