Default Why is the 7.1 optional but but not standard on BD?

As the thread says, why is it only optional & not standard to have Dolby 7.1 sound on the Blu-Ray disc, but IS standard on the HD-DVD.

The Blu-Ray has more sound capacity i've been told so why isn't it at least stndard?

To me, the sound is the eason why i am a blu-ray supporter (cos it has more potential than HD-DVD).

Can anyone help me out?
