DTS (also known as Digital Theater Systems), owned by DTS, Inc. (NASDAQ: DTSI), is a multi-channel digital surround sound format used for both commercial/theatrical and consumer grade applications. It is used for in-movie sound both on film and on DVD, and during the last few years of the Laserdisc format's existence, several releases had DTS soundtracks. DTS Digital Surround is the only 5.1 surround sound format that can deliver this revolutionary 3-dimensional experience through new music recordings on 5.1 Music Discs, original 5.1 soundtracks on DVD-Video and DVD-Audio and video games.
