Default Why bother with PCM? Takes away space from the video :(

Hi there,

I just watched a few movies in a row, and checked out the audio and video details - and it seems that PCM audio is just a bloody waste on BD-50.

AFAIK, true uncompressed 1080p video would fit in on BD-50 for 2 seconds or something. Now - with PCM audio taking of precious space, whytf not compress it usin Dolby True HD or the DTS like.

Furthermore, with all that HD VMD crap out, with several layers (I think 8), whytf isent BD-200 or BD-500 out already?


Now - I always prefer better sound over picture, but PCM is just a pure waste.


Should I be wrong in any of this, please enlighten me!
