DTS Audio discs

Hi,
I think I have this figured out but I just want to confirm with someone:
DTS Audio discs (like the ones from Sting and Lyle Lovett) will only work on DTS compatible receivers right? There are no Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround tracks on a DTS disc right?
Also, DVD-Audio discs contain Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround mixes, ALONG with the DVD-Audio mix and various other formats. Am I correct in thiking that?
Sorry if I'm confusing anyone and thanks for the input.

Rob

I believe that is correct.

Yes, they USUALLY contain a DD5.1 track too, and sometimes a regula stereo PCM track too.
