What audio hardware do you have?
How do you prove you can tell the difference? The only real proof is if you can go through a double-blind test, meaning a test in which you don't know whether you're listening to uncompressed audio or (professionally) compressed audio. Then you're supposed to tell whether there's compression or not, and hit the right answer virtually 100% of the time.
Many people in audio-related websites have done tests like this, and only a few can tell the difference (not on a TV by the way, and certainly not while in the midst of frantic game action).
" It's not as easy as some would like to fantizise."
It doesn't matter whether it's easy or not... What matters is that it's possible, as long as we're discussing the feasibility of this port.

You're in such denial because when people have a choice to enjoy something better you make opinionated excuses. I HAVE hear both compressed from a DVD and Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio from a Blu-ray source, both running from a receiver that supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. I don't need to know or not know which is which to hear the difference. The advantage is there. Some think it's worth it while others don't, and it's all fine. I am sooooooooooooo sorry that Blu-ray allows for the storage space for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio and then some, allowing for those who can take advantage of it to do so (sarcasm of course). And the only console that offers a Blu-ray solution is the PS3. I'm sooooooooo sorry that you keep making excuses against it (no sarcasm this time because I reallyso feel sorry for you). And in regards to multiple discs, part of the reality is cost which multiple discs is apart of which is all that I was pointing out.

In case you didn't know, DVD doesn't use lossy compression, it's either uncompressed audio or lossless compression using the Meridian codec. For someone who seemed like an audiophile, you're sure ignorant about how these formats work.
You don't need to be sorry for me, I'm not making excuses just telling you that IMO (and based on data from real world testing) decently compressed audio is about the smallest reduction in quality a game can get.

Name me a viable DVD source that effectively employs Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio...
