surround may be a "novelty" for the audiophile, but maybe you've never heard The Flaming Lips album "Zaireeka". Not surround in the typical sense, but instead it's 4 CD's with the same track listing, but each CD contains different elements of the song. So you need 4 audio systems (ideally identical) and start all 4 CD's at the same time to hear it. If you get it right, it's totally unbelievable.

People have bounced the 4 CD's into single mp3 files, and the result is muddy, because it's just too much sound for one pair of speakers
