Default lack of "LOSSLESS" audio formats <- FUD

Why aren't the studios supporting the 'lossless' audio formats better. I could understand with older movies not having a good master to work from. But movies made 'yesterday' should be able to take advantage of either Dolby TrueHD or DTS-Master Audio. I mean I have seen all kinds of other formats Dolby Digital 5.1 EX, Plus, all kinds of garbage. Blu-ray should have been more strict on an audio format. I haven't found a good forum for HD-DVD like this one. But just looking in the stores, HD-DVD supports the loseless formats better.

this is completely wrong HD-DVD does not support the lossless Format better than BD.BD in Sound Quality is better than HD_DVD itself.

WE Have PCM dolbyTHD and DTSHDMA

PCM till now is better than DolbyTHD,and DTSMA is going to be supported once we have a DTS receiver capable of decoding DTSHDMA or A second generation BD Player,Look now at FOX releases in BD all of them are using DTSHDMA.Just we are waiting for the hardware to decode it.

BD its better and so far better than HD-DVD dont believe or imagine or going in illusion of HD-DVD FANS.

If you have friends have a PS3 just join them and listen to PCM how is great and better than DolbyTHD
and even PS3 is DOLBYTHD out of the BOX.

We need a Blu-Ray player that can decode ALL of the High Resolution audio codecs in the machine and out thru the analog 5.1(or 7.1) jacks

And we need all studios to at least include a PCM track on their Blu-ray releases.

I'm actually going up to Dolby Labs today to hear a 7.1 soundtrack produced in both Dolby THD and lossless PCM. Should be very interesting.

The story is that content cannot be lossless at the higher bitrates without running into problems. I'll try to get a more in-depth scoop up at Dolby Lab.

That's the way it should be, for sure. Sony releases so far all have the PCM 5.1

It takes just one of these BD studios Sony, Disney or Fox to easily beat the number of titles availble on hd dvd with hi res audio from all studios..

Its not even a race with BD tottally dominating in hi res audio.

Yet another Fud thread about the same started in less than 5 days. The other one got 20 responses, and yet the FUD is posted again.

Btw, great jobs fighting FUD with Facts, boys!
