Note that into the 3D Compositing world there are a lot of proprietary formats.
Finishing a project means sometimes to move to different applications: a real nightmare. At least where some standards are achieved - as in this issue - companies should really worry a little more about the final user. Blu-ray is owned by a Consortium composed by many companies, while DSD is Sony/Philips proprietary.
I'd like to be able to use this format but I'd need to find a stand-alone utility that I could offer clients to crack them with before I could adopt it (I mean other than buying a Pyramix). Something like a souped up Wave Agent or BWF-O-Matic.
