I still swear I read somewhere that the AC3 mixes on DVDs were "broken" by the need to keep them sounding good on less-than-5.1 equipment. Something about encoding Prologic info in them as well? The channels in the DTS mixes, not being the default mix, could stay theatrically discrete.

This issue supposedly wasn't the case with Laserdisc, which may be another reason LD mixes sound better.
