It has not (from my subjective feeling).

Another problem that often gets forgotten: while many devices support aac-in-mp4, most of them force a downmix to stereo, because of licensing issues (IIRC). And you cannot bitstream AAC.
So if you're going for multi-channel home cinema I'd rather use Matroska with AC3 or DTS.
