I am sure that no-one on the surround group is a particular fan of AC3, but the question is surely one of compatibility for commercial reasons.
Not wanting to argue semantics, I am under the impression that Ivan wants a "real world" commercial answer to which is the best format in which to distribute his music, and I am attempting to provide him with a reasoned answer with which he can progress.
Just about every DVD being produced today has a multichannel Dolby (AC3) soundtrack, sometimes in addition to a 768kbps DTS soundtrack, but it is not "modern"?
Some early Universal DVDs were DTS only but they soon stopped manufacturing these discs, and adopted the approach of solely Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital/or DTS on the same disc.
Blu-ray offer better quality multichannel audio via PCM. Dolby TRUEHD or DTS-HD MA, but not everyone has a Blu-ray player. DVD is the predominant format.
Ideally Ivan, the most satisfying answer is probably to provide BOTH DVD and Blu-ray versions, as Blu-ray is best, but not everyone can play Blu-ray.

Bob, although not completely, we also commented to the subject ;-)
On your post I want to add that the topic is "modern" surround formats and AC3 is IMHO not an example of a modern format ;-)
