Ps3 Playback Audio Info/ Help

[gd0923]

I am considering purchasing a PS3 more for its Blu Ray DVD than as a game console. I believe that the new firmware update 2:30 Has just improved the sound quality and its ability to playback Dolby True HD and DTS-HD MA, now my questions is the following: does it playback DTS-HD Master Audio in bit stream or is it just plain DTS-HD Master Audio. And if i understand correctly with this update you will have the ability to get the perfect sound just as it is done in the studios. I understand that one will need a receiver that has DTS-HD MA abilities. All I need to know is that i can use the PS3 player as my DVD and that it will do the same as anything else out there now that the new firmware update has been released. I am thinking that it will do as good if not better than any Blu Ray DVD player currently available.
