DVD can have a range:
Dolby 2.0 (Left-Right Stereo)
Dolby Digital 5.1 (Front Left-Center-Right, Rear Left-Right and bass channels)
Dolby Digital 6.1 (Front Left-Center-Right, Rear Left-Center-Right and bass channels)
DTS 5.1 (Dolby Digital 5.1, but with uncompressed, high quality sound)
I think a Dolby Digital 7.1 is in the works too, with upper and lower channels.

Which means a CD can't be played in surround sound. I've got Dolby Surround Pro Logic, and when I listen to a CD in Pro Logic surround the sound falls flat.
