Thanks for the informative posts, everyone!...
Because Bitstream mixes the HD track into Dobly Digital only...or lossy audio. Thus it problems a problem if you have a receiver that can decode the lastest HD codecs but how would you get the HD audio to your receiver?

Your only way of getting HD audio with full 5.1 loseless sound on the PS3 is via LPCM (with an HDMI connection of course)

The better stand-alone blu-ray models can bitstream HD audio. Thus, one of the few problems with the PS3 as your main media center...hopefully they fix it someday
