Soooo many formats and codecs.
I've just moved to BluRay. Every BluRay disk I own except one has night and day better sound than CD or DVD. I realize there are lots of variables that contribute to this qualitative difference, everything from the recording to the mix to the codex. But in the end, I think the teams that do each of these tasks pay much more attention to detail, focusing on maximum quality for the BluRay distribution. So the end result is a much higher quality user experience, not just in video but also in audio.

Yes, but are there BR audio only discs? Or BR discs that primarily focus on music in the way that CDs do. If there are, they should be cheaper since no video production is involved. Where would I look for such a disc? How would it be designated?
If not, you would have to listen to video musicals (yuk). If it comes down to DVD-A or no music collection, I'll take DVD-A.
You are right about regular movie type BR discs being night and day better than everything else as far as audio (or video).
I'm trying to figure out an alternative to CDs or vinyl to add to my music collection. Surround is to stereo what stereo is to mono, in my opinion. That old two channel venue won't hunt anymore
