It's just been announced that the Blu-Ray box set will be 5.1 DTS-MA audio only, with no Dolby soundtrack

Somebody is not going to be happy....

I do not ultimately care greatly which is used (although I prefer Dolby TrueHD as it usually takes up less space on the disc that could be used for other features) but I hate the fact that many modern releases only seem to have 5.1 mixes.  I would love to have original mono and stereo soundtracks included more often.  There is a real nostalgia value attached to listening to them for me.  I am not just talking about SW here, just in general.

If this was HD-DVD it would be mandatory to use Dolby True-HD but it doesn’t seem fair on films that was released exclusively in dts on theatrical release. All I’m, looking for is equal consumer fairness and that just doesn’t exist on Bluray.

I haven’t really brought many bluray titles since I stopped some 5 months ago. I brought BATMAN on warner bluray DOLBY TRUE-HD some 4 weeks ago, but I’ve basically turned my nose up at bluray now I’ve turned my back, on the format.
