The problem is that most people "earball" it and end up with wildly exaggerated bass that sounds especially bad with music because it draws attention to itself.  Since most won't be bothered to go to the trouble of purchasing an SPL meter, Audyssey is in most avrs now, so people are at least getting close. It takes some playing around with, but when you finally get it right movies have the impact they should and the sub blends transparently with your other loudspeakers for music use.
