VERY true. And thankfully, one of Universal's true gifts to us quaddies was the incomparable mch SACD of the Carpenter's Singles which they used to blow out at the old Columbia House Record club for $5.99!

Well, it's pretty easy to determine between the two.
If the best audio option available on the disc is MLP, it's a DVD-A/V disc, and if the best audio option is DTS, then it's just DVD-V.
Huh, how did I miss this post? Really, that's the quick and easy way to tell? That does seem pretty easy. But....I get mixed up then in terms of MLP. Is LPCM and MLP the same thing? I often see LPCM listed (if it's DVD-Audio Extractor). Or maybe I only see that on Blurays? Heck I dunno.....

You shouldn't see "LPCM 5.1" on any commercially released DVDs in DVD-Audio Extractor, but you will see it on Blu-Rays.
"MLP 5.1" is almost exclusively used on DVD-A discs as I've never seen it on a single Blu-Ray.

Dolby True HD is actually an implementation of Meridian's MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing).
Oh, OK. That's good to know. Thanks.
True, but it's still labeled differently, and I'm just trying to keep things as simple and basic for GOS as I can.
No need to add further confusion to this…

I know, I know....while this doesn't seem right that GOS would even consider listening to this....I do have morals....oh and culture. 
I so want to like classical music...and I've purchased a few discs over time. Here is what I have tonight....and it's tagged correctly thanks to Simon. :yikes

oh I dunno.. a bit of rock/pop/alt/indie/country.!?
maybe check out his stuff on iTunes or something first before chucking your money at the OOP SACDs/DVD-As?
(fwiw out of the 2 prefer "Gold" musically to his other Surround title "Rock & Roll".. it's great.. it's also a 4.1 mix no Centre channel.. my favourite album of his is "Heartbreaker" there's a Stereo SACD which is pretty decent iirc but not played it for a while, kind of locked in a 70s Quad groove these days donchyaknow!
I never purchased his surround sacd's nor latter DVDA'S but now regret it. So he's on my want list.
He does a great job with Cowboy Junkies on their "Trinity Revisited" cd/dvd a 5.1 DD, great mix though.

Only the 2nd time I've listened to this one...had it for months though. It just never clicked yet with me for some reason.
