  "Nobody doubted it"
  
  Oh, really? There were polls across many of the A/V forums similar to the one I've linked below. And here's a moderator on AVS Forum, after the news was posted (read that again, especially the word "after"), still expressing doubt:

  Yes, indeed, there were many people who said it would never happen and just as many who said, if it would happen, it wouldn't be for a long time. Some even went as far as to say (and they were being serious) that a DTS-HD Master Audio upgrade would require PS3 owners to shell out some cash to Sony! Just shows you how ignorant some people are: Sony didn't write the Master Audio decoding software -- DTS did -- and since Sony already pays the DTS decoding licensing fee for the PS3, adding Master Audio doesn't cost Sony anything other than compiling the firmware update to include that software.

    He did the same thing when Warner went BD-exclusive, claiming he saw it coming even though two months earlier he indicated he expected Warner might go HD DVD-exclusive.
    
    This is certainly great news for PS3 owners, and yet more evidence that Sony has a world-class BD player in the PS3. Sony's support for the PS3 has been phenomenal.

      What I said was I wasn't totally surprised, because we had discussed it in the past.

    Some didn't expect it. Nobody has ever accused of Piss3 owners of being overly bright.
    I expected it, and I don't even own one.

      ....I doubt PS3 owners will take notice of accusations they are not overly bright from a person with such eloquent prose.
      
      
      Hopefully you will appreciate the irony :o)
