Question

Movie Sountracks not compatable with Home Theater

Dec 8, 2011 4:25PM PST

Movie Sountracks, made for theaters, are not being re-formatted for Home Theater Audio on DVDs. They are not compatable. Low dialog and thuderous special effects keeps me constantly changing the volume. Re-formatting costs extra big bucks and the studios are cheating us out of the Audio experience.
Why cough up thousands on all of the equipment and speakers when the DVD is defective ?
I would like to see a certification label on future DVDs that state that it has been formatted for Home Audio.
