I guess, most of the "highly-skilled programmers" don't feel like playing around with the DTS compression, not only because
*DTS, Inc* themselves are not "open-source friendly" (to say the least), but also because the so-called "Coherent Acoustics" is terribly inefficient.
Just for comparison purposes, stereo MP3 reaches "transparency" at 256kbps, and MP2 does the same at 320kbps, whereas stereo DTS needs "only"
576kbps
for "getting there"...
