Varies. Most are in TrueHD or DTS HD 5.1. Check release details for
audio info on each disc.

Drat, still no Leon Errol shorts.

I just returned from a long trip and the blu-ray version of Wizard of Oz is
waiting for me [with my other held mail] at the post office.....
mmmmmmmmm.... can't wait!

From the reviews I've read, they did a great job on the transfer to BD.

I just watched the BD version of Star Trek (2009.) Excellent! Now I have
a half dozen hours of out-takes, gag-reels, interviews, etc., as well as the
BD Live content to wade through. A good deal at $19.50 for three discs.

I just bought the BD version of Star Trek. It is my first BD purchase.
I'm expecting a PS3 for Christmas. I was planning on watching the
digital version now, and then BD version in January.

Unfortunately, the digital version can't be burned to a DVD. It can only
be enabled on one computer, and apparently can't be streamed across a
network. I can watch it on my desktop computer, but what a waste when I
have a brand new 55" Vizio LCD TV.

Too bad I'm a paying customer, or I would have just ripped it from some
Internet site and been able to watch it.

Does that mean that a BD (bluray disk) cannot be 'ripped' on a computer?

Just rent the DVD version. Two-week *free* trials are available from both
Netflix and Blockbuster.
