Any audiophiles out there(with good equipment) that can comment on the audio track, especially the DTS? Is the centre channel just Bono? Do they make the common error of mixing way to much audience noise in the rear channels during the songs? Lots of Sub?

I wont have the DVD for a few days, but I'm very curious!
 
There is no DTS track. The Dolby Digital track is good, but not great. On some of the songs (UTEOTW, Walk On) the bass is boomy and muddled. The surrounds are put to good use I think. There are some panning effects with Edge's guitar on Elevation and on Beautiful Day you here Edge singing "Always".
 
No DTS, eh? I figured one of the reasons they cut a few songs may have been to fit the (advertised) DTS audio track onto the disc. Now that there is no DTS track I am really confused as to why they would cut the songs, especially since they are advertising the "full concert". Very Mysterious. (No pun intended!)
