Audio + Video
LOTR FOTR (video at 21.84 GB) using TrueHD 6.1 = 21.84 + 6.28 = 28.12 GB
using TrueHD 7.1 = 21.84 + 7.33 = 29.17 GB

LOTR TT(video at 22.47 GB) using TrueHD 6.1 = 22.47 + 6.46 = 28.93 GB
Using TrueHD 7.1 = 22.47 + 7.54 = 30.01 GB

LOTR ROTK (video at 26.25 GB) using TrueHD 6.1 = 26.25 + 7.55 = 33.8 GB
Using TrueHD 7.1 = 26.25 + 8.81 = 35.06 GB

For the LOTR EE, ROTK is the killer for HD-DVD.
