Yeah, but that's still enough for an extra shopping channel! J/K.



Seriously, I don't think bandwidth would be a problem (I think DD5.1 on most DVDs is encoded at anywhere between 300KBps and 700KBps, DTS goes up to 1.5MBps but NTL would be unlikely to support DTS).

What, I think, might be a problem is the licencing fees Dolby would charge. IIRC, licences to use Dolby aren't cheap.
