Many many people do NOT hook up a 5.1 surround sound system when purchasing a DVD player. Of course many do as well. It seems that a good percentage of consumers purchase DVD players and hook them up to nothing more than their TV's existing stereo speakers or their 2 channel stereo system. Also many only use their computer's 2 speakers or their portable DVD player's internal 2 speakers! Is it no wonder then, that many DVD's give you the option for selecting Dolby 5.1 surround, DTS, or Dolby 2.0? Kudos to those movie companies that DO give you the option of selecting Dolby 2.0 from the audio setup menu! Many of us are satisfied with 2 speakers!!!!
