Guys correct me if I am wrong, but to enjoy PCM don't you have to have a HDMI input on your receiver? I thought the PS3 passes the PCM audio only through the HDMI cable. My receiver does not have HDMI, so I had to use the optical input. Because of this I chose bit-stream and not PCM on my PS3. I could be totally wrong here, so let me know as I would like to enjoy the best audio for my home theatre set-up.
