My DD vs. DTS experience

My wife and I were watching a Netflix rental copy of the Bone Collector one night, when the the video became to pixellate and break up near the climactic scene of the film (just before the killer enters the apartment of the detective played by Denzel Washington). I ended up stopping the film and starting a few frames later and was able to watch the end with no problem. However, the audio seemed much more "closed in" and less atmospheric, particularly the sound of the rain falling outdoors. I had started the film with the DTS tracks, and when I restarted the disc it defaulted to DD. Music tracks are the most revealing-Fantasia 2000, for example-the DTS just wipes the floor with the DD.
