Going off on a slight tangent here, is the X0 DVD really the appropriate place to consider including as many audio mixes as possible? Seems to me that would leave less data that could be better used for encoding the video.

Thank you for saying that, that is exactly what was running through my mind when I heard Zion ask what we wanted as far as audio.
I still don't understand this - can the available space on a disc always be dedicated to improving the video, or is there a point where it literally makes no difference due to some magic number being reached that I wouldn't know about?

Or...3rd option, does it become a question of individual perception because the difference in quality, while technically there, may not be noticeable by most people (if anyone)?

The reason I'm wondering is, depending on answer to the question, could having 2 X0 discs (one with stereo mix, one with mono mix) be justifiable?
