Default Where's the multichannel LPCM?

Sony and Disney movies used to release their movies in multichannel PCM along with lossy Dolby Digital. I am realizing that most new releases are now in TrueHD, and of course FOX and Universal is doing this in DTS-HD MA. I used to prefer the LPCM because my HTPC would play these lossless formats without the downsampling that most of the blu-ray software players are known to do. I realize that in theory there should be no audible difference betwee DTS Dolby and LPCM lossless codecs. But if there is downsampling with the proprietary codecs, then I'm not getting all the audio, the way the director intended for us to hear.

My question is... is LPCM done with? I was under the impression that there was more than enough space for a 7.1 LPCM track on a blu-ray disc
