I have ripped a few BDs to HD...they are currently hogging up about 220 GB.

FLAC is a lossless codec and from my personal testing in my HT (your results
may vary) it sounded better than normal DD or DTS and almost as good as
Tru-HD.
The real bonus is that it drops the filesize by several hundred MB at least,
sometimes more.

I get mine over HDMI. You can also get it over multi-channel analog if your
player has those and your receiver has the inputs.
I've done both and obviously HDMI is better since you get both video and
sound with one cable, instead of 7. and tru-hd and dts-hd are vastly better
than that compressed crap.

So how do you get tru-hd or dts-hd from a set top blu-ray player? The HDMI
receiver passes it on to the HDTV (which is stereo). Can't use the SPDIF
without it degrading the quality. What other options are we left with to
process the sound? This just keeps getting better and better!

There are also known issues with spdif ports and Bluray, specifically
getting any tru-hd or dts-hd decoded.
Spdif Is not considered a protected channel for drm and thus the pc
might end up downgrading the signal.
