Yep, I forgot about that one (even though I own it I haven't had a chance to watch it yet.) It has both English and German PCM tracks. I'm glad I qualified my statement above with "they could probably squeeze in a second one..." Still, using an advanced audio codec would have allowed them to include a French PCM track (for the Canadians) as well. Note that while highdefdigest claims that the disc includes a French PCM track in addition to the English and German tracks, the cover says differently (and highdefdigest is notorious for getting audio specs wrong on these reviews.)

I wasn't aware of that - thanks for pointing it out. That's great news for those that own the Pioneer and even more reason why DTHD should be more common on BD.
