Re: DualDisc may actually be bad for DVD-A...

>> . . . or the Dolby Digital playback when watching the video content at home . . . . . what's the purpose of just playing the DVD-A portion with no video? <<

DualDisc will be used to release whole music albums. Moreover, you should know that only a few songs of a typical new album release actually get a corresponding video (i.e. the chart-single/title track -- usually created at substantial time and cost.)

Furthermore, to do what you suggest, would mean that each record company would have to film (and lip sync etc.) about ten song videos (i.e. one for each song on the album), even before an album is released! Needless to say, this would create an impossible workload for all concerned.

(However, a concert video or singles DVD compilation would indeed be more suited to a DVD-Video release with Dolby and/or DTS surround audio.)
