It turns out that the encoding of the current Digital Cinema files is so bad that Blu-ray ends up being better. Many indie houses are making Blu-Rays instead and sending them to the cinemas.

In fact we could do it right now with x264 and other tools, but I guess we don't have enough layers of DRM for that to happen.
