if i understand you correctly... dts-hd and dd truehd has no sonic advantages over lpcm, just that they will be more efficiently packed onto the disc media, taking up less space.most lpcm soundtracks released so far are derived not from original 20/48 or 24/48 studio masters, but from a lower rez 16/48 version. where do you get this information from? Is there a website detailing this, or are any BD players or av receivers about to display the information on the bitstream?
why the hell studios are doing this? are they afraid that the first few releases might be copied and pirated?
how will lossless at 24/48 or 20/48 compare to dts 96/24?
were there ever any movie soundtrack orginal recorded and mixed at 24/96?How are we ever to find out whether dts-hd and dd truehd is truely as "lossless" as they claim?
have you actually heard lpcm compare to current dts/dd? How would you dscribe the sonic differences?
Can you suggest some movie titles that will showoff the advantages of lpcm soundtracks?
Thanks
