Default Tusk Remastered DVD

Can anyone tell me what exactly is on the DVD of the Tusk Remastered release? According to the site, it's the album but mixed in surround sound. I'm a little confused. Anyone?

Think of it this way...

Christine Left Channel
Stevie Center Channel
Lindsey Right Channel
John Left Surround Channel
Mick Right Surround Channel
And the .1 Channel is all about Meghan Trainor.

This disc alone makes this Tusk set essential
for all serious Fleetwood Mac fans.

And checking the prices of previous DVD Audio Discs from
Fleetwood Mac (not that this will be the exact same type disc),
those disc go for more money than Amazon is asking for the
whole set. A bargain! What are you waiting for?

It's a little goofy and old school to to be using DVD-A, a fairly failed format. It really should have been on the slightly superior blu-ray format, if not for only the the fact that far more people would be able to benefit as there are far more BD players than players that play DVD-A.

I really don't get that either, Richard. For those without DVD-A is there any benefit at all, is it still playable?

Depends. Most DVD-A discs would allow a down mix to be played at 2.0 (but defeats the purpose of DVD-A and 5.1 ). Check out this wiki about DVD-A, especially the compatibility section. It should help!

Can DVD-A be played on a Blu-Ray player?

Some yes, some no. I would say most will not play
all the options available. Buy yourself an Oppo.

I'm still wondering if it's actually a DVD-A disc. I have
a few of the disc's (including the Mac) and a few players.
But that format died out about the same time as the
saber-toothed-tiger.
