Universal Announces Blu-ray Audio Plans

 

universal For those worried that formerly HD DVD-exclusive studio Universal planned to limit their Blu-ray audio to the Dolby Digital+ found on many of the company's HD DVD offerings, have no fear.

Universal announced today that they intend to use DTS-HD MA on ALL Blu-ray releases, providing both lossless audio for those so set up and 1.5Mbps DTS tracks for those without the equipment.

Universal didn't specifically mention what video codec they would be using for their Blu-ray releases, or if the initial titles would be direct ports of their HD DVD releases, but the inclusion of lossless audio certainly bodes well for viewers.
