what audio codec would i be hearing since the ps3 can't decode dts hdma??

would the audio i hear still be hd?

and in your own opinions, do you believe the ps3 can receive a firmware update in the future to fix this?

(btw, i will be getting an hdmi 7.1 receiver with my bd player/ps3, if that makes a difference in your answers)

thanks in advance everyone
At this time, you (and the rest of the PS3 owners) would get the core DTS track at 1.5Mpbs. I have a PSS3, DH4 and a receiver capable of decoding DTS HDMA and have confirmed the 1.5Mpbs audio track. It is not bad, but I am sure the MA track is much better.

There have been many rumors that Sony could upgrade the PS3 to decode DTS HDMA, but no true evidence to this effect yet.

The PS3 rocks in many ways and one of them is that it can be upgraded for future releases.
