It's worse than that…

My understanding is that most original cinema soundtracks are mixed to 5.1 and when a BD or DVD includes a 6.1/7.1 sound track, that track is generated from the original 5.1 soundtrack in a similar way to what your receiver does when it generates 7.1 channels from a 5.1 soundtrack. I haven't heard of any 6.1 or 7.1 soundtracks on BD or DVD that have genuinely been mixed to 6.1/7.1.
