Well....what can I say other than I don't work in the DVD authoring department!!!  Personally, I don't think that compression is necessary in the mastering phase since it is provided in consumer gear as an option with the Dolby Digital decoding, but since when has Hollywood had an obsession with quality? BTW, I wouldn't be so sure that THX mastered DVD soundtracks are not compressed too. You might call THX directly and inquire about it to them.

Refering to those hoping to deliver a great DVD experience for home theater: One person may think, “I’ll change the emphasis to help the home listener.” Another person will think, “I don’t know in what type of environment this audio will be played. I’ll leave it up to the user to address his or her system/environment needs.” ... In another post there was even a mild bit of ranting over people with authority in a production who are not fully talented in audio making decisions that adversely affect the audio mastering outcome. While I was thinking about 'theater emphasis' when I wrote that (and more) above, the same applies to other changes in the DVD audio mix. I certainly can see your point Wayne. I suppose, if asked, which I won't be, I would vote for, "give me the truest reproduction source you can and let me take care of the rest in my listening environment."

Soundhound, Which issue? Just checked my local Mall-Wart mag section and they still have June's on the racks. Unless Wayne is really "Gil, Jon, Mitch, John, Dale, Harley, Pete, Mike, or Michael" he isn't in that issue. I guess since the snow and ice have recently turned to slush up here, it's holding up the normal dog sled re-supply convoy.  Jeff Mackwood (Ottawa)
