What is DVD-Audio?

Using MLP Lossless from Dolby Laboratories, DVD-Audio discs can store up to six channels of 24-bit/96 kHz audio, including a 

separate low-frequency bass channel. Compare that to two channels of 16-bit/44.1 kHz sound from CD’s!  For stereo buffs, a 

DVD-Audio disc can alternatively hold two channels of 24-bit/192 kHz audio, exceeding the quality of any music audio format 

previously available.

DVD-Audio discs can also add a visual element to your music.  Discs can carry picture galleries, lyrics, notes, or any combination 

of still images, animation, and text. Producers and artists can even add audio commentary, similar to  that found on many DVD-

Video discs. And, as with DVD-Video, each DVD-Audio disc can also contain full-motion video, with accompanying Dolby Digital 

sound in up to 5.1 channels.
