I think dts and DD are different and one isn't necessarily "better" than the other. You can argue that DD is a more efficient codec given how it can compress the audio data and still offer "performance" comparable to less efficiently compresed dts audio but that is countered by dts being preferred by a lot of people (at least those who post on the boards). Look here, on AVS Forum, and just about anywhere else online and those who prefer DD over dts or who feel dts is a "waste" are in the clear minority.

I love dts audio as much as I love DD audio and I've got no problem with the two of them co-existing as different solutions to the same problem: getting rich and exciting audio stored on DVD-Video discs in the best way possible.

Peace...
