: I noticed that direct TV is encoding their pay per view movies in 5.1 now. You need a newer satellite receiver to receive it though. Is the quality worth upgrading the satellite receiver for? Anyone had any experience so far?

No direct experience but it has got to be better than cable!

If the satellite implementation of DD 5.1 is only half as good as some recent DVD's, Tomorrow Never Dies SE for example, then it will be pretty good.
