This presents some interesting scenarios. First and foremost, it future-proofs these future-only formats; it's anybody's guess (well, actually, everybody has a guess, but those guesses tend to vary) which format, if any, will out. And it's great news for authors and content creators in the development and bit-budget wiggle room it gives them. And in terms of the audio codecs, from a consumer perspective, the inclusion of Dolby and dts means that existing audio playback equipment investments won't have to be tossed aside (HD-DVD and Blu-ray would be tossed aside first).Source: EMediaLive
