It depends on where you sit relative to the screen and the back wall. I've got a 7.1 setup and like David said, nothing really uses the back 2 channels. To get them to do something, I set the extra surrounds to use PLX encoding which is just a ProLogic synthesized sound. It doesn'r do that much really.
Once Blu-Ray disks become common, then with TrueHD, you would get discreet 7.1 sound. But it's probably a few years out before it all shakes out and the HiDef DVDs become common for rentals.
