From what's known it's just an ordinary steelbook. No need for me to pay 20% extra. I'll just get the amaray version, which is already expensive enough, even for a 3d bluray.

This time Italy wins: the price of 3D amaray is the same as the UK edition, 20€

So English audio is downgraded from 24-bit to 16-bit to make room for another lossless audio track.

Didnt this happen recently on another release??

 

[lgans316]

It happens usually on International releases when the Studios try to cram in more dubs and subs. For instance, POTC, National Treasure, Tron Legacy (America) etc were 24-bit. The International release (especially Germany, France) was downgraded to 16-bit to accommodate more subs/dubs.

Whether you can really discern quality difference is a different story.

 

[ricster]

Did they do it on Man of Steel or Pacific Rim ?

 

[lgans316]

Need to check on that but I think this is why they had to downgrade from 7.1 to 5.1 on Pacific Rim.

 

[bradipolpo]

2D UK track on PR BD was 5.1/24bit, but FRE/GER were 7.1/16bit and US disc had 5.1 and 7.1 @24bit both; 3D UK track was 5.1 too and 5.1/7.1 on US disc @16bit both.
MoS UK BD had 7.1/24bit on 2D and 3D

btw, about Gravity: US track is 5.1/16bit too
