Default Blu-ray audio codecs. What does the future hold?

Are there any new audio codecs planned for release in the next few years?

Most Blu-ray players are able to handle all of the audio codecs listed below via internal decoding or bitstream output but what about the future codecs?

- Linear PCM
- Dolby Digital
- Dolby Digital Plus
- Dolby TrueHD
- DTS Digital Surround
- DTS-HD Master Audio
- DTS-HD High Resolution Audio

Are the above audio codecs locked down for a while or are we going to need replacement Blu-ray players in a couple of years for the new audio codecs?

Thanks,
Zak
