"DOLBY TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD is a lossless compression codec. Although it is compressed to use less disc space than a PCM track, once decoded it is identical to the original master. Dolby TrueHD supports up to eight full-range channels (with room for expansion) of 24-bit/96 kHz audio (at the discretion of the studio) up to a maximum of 18Mbps bit rate. Support for Dolby TrueHD is optional for Blu-Ray players and mandatory for HD-DVD players."

I guess I could have misinterpreted this, and thinking back I probably did. Anyone who can explain how this is different from what I wrote originally please help.

Not a misinterpretation, you just didn't finish reading.

Decoded Dolby TrueHD = Decoded DTS HD MA = Uncompressed LPCM

Which means there are three codecs that are closest to the studio master.

Thanks, that actually makes a lot of sense now. I wish I had done this before I handed in my paper. Oh well. Now I know.
