Is a DVD able to handle more data than a CD, yes clearly it does & we both agree on that.HOWEVER, on a movie DVD the standard set by both Dolby Digital & DTS are for less information (data) than is on a CD.
Can a company put a cd or higher level of data on a DVD, yes they can.
Do they? Generally the answer is NO.
I agree that some music dvds are recoreded with high levels of information. You give good examples. Once again if you look you can find DVD music that is recorded at 24/96 which any DVD player can play. But finding these discs can be a challenge.
The point I was trying to make with the original post is that the audio quality of MOVIE dvds is nothing special. Sometimes, movies have a seperate 2 channel tracks, which is (sometimes) recorded at CD level of data. Which may be the reason the stereo feed sounds better or it may be that the player has better dacs than the receiver.
