I believe you need to switch if you're having the extended version copy.

Yep and yep, for both extended versions. Not for the original ones though.

Why dont they just put out one extended version in only DTS so they could fit it all on one disc? Id buy it then...

Nope, and I still haven't seen the Two Towers.

Almost fell asleep watching the Fellow of the Ring

yeah, they do have 5 commentary tracks on there too.

Are any of the commentaries good?

The writers/director one was very good, the cast was ok but annoying at times. I haven't watched the designers or the production crew ones yet.

omg you are missing so much! I don't even consider the theatrical versions to be the "real" movies, or even the way they were truly intended to be.

Because, BION, most people don't have DTS-capable audio equipment.
