I use 2 channel and haven't given too much thought to multi channel. However I'm surprised when I talk to people at work. It seems like when they upgrade there TV's the also buy into surround sound.

I was watching a demo at Circuit City the other day and I found the sounds comming from behind me irritating and distracting. I'm sure this could have been done much better and set up, position and volume setting are all critical. For me right now I have no desire for surround.
