Most readers will recall that, prior to being formally absorbed in the Warner Brothers, New Line released their Blu-ray titles with DTS-HD Master Audio soundtracks (ex: '
Pan's Labyrinth'). Once absorbed, they fell to greater Warner Brother's TrueHD demands (ex: '
Austin Powers Collection'), but it appears they may be now moving back towards DTS as their primary audio codec. We'll keep on eye on the situation.
