Charlie,No matter which way discs are authored people complain.
Traditional authoring with seperate groups for Surround and Stereo have people complaining when players (not yours) are poorly engineered and require a display to switch between groups to switch between the default group and the secondary group(s). Of course a well engineered player allows a mechanism to switch between groups without a display but fewer and fewer players are well engineered these days from a usability standpoint. Hell, even SA-CD on universal players are requiring displays to switch between stereo and MC presentations.
So content providers started using the PGC_Block recommended practice which places the data into a single group and seperate streams which can be toggled between with the AUDIO streams and this has some complaining about this implementation.
There is simply no pleasing everyone at this point.
