RE: Not so interesting blu audio poll

>>>he majority want their BDs' video to look like modern animation: no grain.<<<
That is unfortunate, if not pathetic. It shows a serious lack of understanding of film.

>>>There is no excuse for EE with a hi-def transfer.<<<
Agreed. The problem is, that both DNR and EE have to be added to the picture-its an active act, not passive.

My only gripe with DTS-HD MA, is that many if not most players do not decode it internally (streaming doesn't count).
Dolby True-HD is OK, if they don't use Dialnorm.

The lack of disc space is mostly BS. One of the points of BD, was the high disc space could handle anything they wanted. How many movies actually use all or almost all of their disc space?
I get the distinct impression that most studios just don't care.
