Will WB ever use lossless audio? - Blu-ray Forum

Hello,
according to you, or official sources, will WB ever stop using DD audio and start using lossless audio for TV shows on BD?? They say it's a pointless matter but I disagree because I can hear the difference between compressed and lossless audio (or least very high compressed bitrates).

It's outrageous to me that they do this in 2011, I mean why? is it only a discs number matter or there's a license fee for codecs too? How would that cost for them to use 1-2 more discs with lossless audio? THAT pricey? Why not them and ALL other studios yes?

If they -ever- start to release the old good TV shows on BDs I just wouldn't stand to get a 640kbit audio, just a 192kbit improvement from the DVD version! Video is not everything!

I feel ya! I'm a Smallville fan and every blu is DD . That's why I'm not buying Supernatural.
