Default PCM stereo and DTS 5.1, which should be better?

Sorry, I am a total newbe to Blu-Ray Technology even though it has been out for a long while. I have two questions please.

I just bought a concert Blu-Ray disc which has Linear PCM Stereo 2.3Mbps
and DTS 5.1 48kHz at 1.5Mbps. In theory, what should sound better?

I always perfer surround sound such as Dolby Digital 5.1, so is PCM stereo a surround sound format simular to Dolby Digital 5.1? How is it different in respects to how it utilizes the 5.1 speaker setup? Other than being uncompressed, I have a really hard time understanding PCM Stereo as compared to formats such as DD 5.1 and DTS 5.1

Please assist my understanding.
