Yes, I agree with you that tracks that are natively stereo are better off being listened to as stereo....
BUT, you're not getting the point.
This is NOT a stereo-to-surround decoder, this is a SURROUND-TO-STEREO processor, that means you can play digital surround files (AC-3?) and, despite having only two speakers, you will listen to them as if there were 5.... no, it ain't magic, it's called PSYCHOACOUSTICS
Oh, and this have been arroud for decades (see: Ambisonic... the sound processing method, not the software), exept no one wants to implement it (and it makes me angry, I love this technology)
