24/96 audio/data from DVD digital out

Okay, I'm finalizing the last few purchases and I'm down to buying
the right DVD player. I have a TAE9000ES pre/pro which accepts
24/96 on the DVD digital input but not the CD (per the manual).
So I plan to use my current CD player for older CDs and any new
DTS CDs and DVDs will have to play in the DVD unit. With all the
talk about which DVD players that do and don't output 24/96 audio
and/or data from the digital out I'm wondering what to do.
I understand that DVD audio discs that were recorded at 24/96
would be degraded (although perhaps not noticeably) if the
player downconverted to 48KHz sampling. Is the audio from
DTS/AC-3 DVD's SUPPOSED TO BE reproduced (was it recorded
that way) in 24/96?
What's the difference between audio and data coming out the
digital port? Is it the difference between a PCM bitstream
and encoded mutlichannel sound?
Thanks for you help.
