I didn't take the guy's Twitter poll but I would've been included in that 83%.

I don't think he mentions anything about a setting that comes with some 
Blu-Ray or DVD players -- in my old Panasonic Blue-Ray there's a 
"Dialog Enhancer" setting that is supposed to pump up the dialogue (in 
the center channel of a 4-speaker setup) and I have it turned on but I 
still find myself using subtitles often.
