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

Cheers that’s the best news I’ve been really waiting for! I’ll now put STAR WARS on the my bluray BANNED list because it uses dtsHDMA!

I did tell you all! Well that doesn’t surprise me at all, if not a predictable of Fox as they are hell bent like all the studios now on siding with dtsHDMA.

But why is it such a big deal if they use DTS audio for the Blu-Rays? We're getting the special editions and not the unaltered trilogy and these had DTS audio in selected theatres so they are using the same format.I'm really happy that they have gone down the DTS route because this is really the best format, so much better than Dolby. Nearly all DTS soundtracks i've heard have knocked the spots of their Dolby counterparts.

I can understand people not wanting to buy the blu-rays because of which version they contain but refusing to buy because of an audio format is pretty laughable to me, especially when that format was used for their theatrical run.

Well i'm refusing to buy them because i saw Star Wars on film and not on some digital format so i will not buy any releases until it's released in its true format and each film get an original 35mm celluloid release
