If these Warner titles are released in MPEG2 then it lends credit to the conspiracy theory that Sony is pushing MPEG2 to line their pockets. Why would Warner want to go through the effort to re-encode a movie in MPEG2 when they already have it in VC-1? It's not like they can argue that they needed to use MPEG2 to make the file size smaller to fit on a 25GB Blu-ray disk. Even if they use MPEG2, I'm still looking forward to a head to head comparison.
