Why Dosen't Sony exploit their lossless sound compression in their games???

Most people who play on a console don't have a 2.1, let alone a 7.1 Yes it is a good selling feature for those who have it, but worthless to the majority. In fact, most still user their horrible tinny, flat sounding speakers that come built-in on thier flat panel TV's.
As for me, I find it an excellent feature. Besides, it is labeled on every box, as to what kind of sound it has. It is just listed in the specs part and not advertised on the front cover.

Do you honestly know a lot of people that game and doesnt have 5.1?

Uh.

I don't know anybody that games with 5.1.

I know one with a theater setup who watches movies, but that's it. People I know are fine with the default speakers on the HDTV. (...if they even have an HDTV)

This.

No-one I know (apart from myself) has surround sound of any sort for their gaming, and only 1 family I know has it for their main TV (i.e. movies, television programs).
