This is an excerpt from a question/answer session with a Warner Bros rep (from The Digital Bits site):
First instance:
[Samuel_M] Given Paramount's newly announced plans to support DTS with the upcoming Jack Ryan Box Set, what will be the extent of WB support of DTS in the future?
[Warner] No plans for DTS at this time.
Later on:
[mark_basile] Thanks for coming and forgive me if this has already been asked. How does Warner determine which titles get DTS or not?
[Warner] It's easy. None do.
Here's a link to the entire session. However, be warned that you may read some more bad news.

WB, along with the DVD-A alliance, has botched DVD-A's initial release and are currently coughing up blood on the music end. The DVD-A format could have been so much more -- alas, it's a mere shadow of a format. After looking at the new releases announced recently, the best I could do was "Why bother?".
On the DVD-V side, instead of including DTS -- even at the half-rate in use today -- like most studios have done, we get this crap. Somebody, please buy this company.
Now, in response to the WB bumbling, here's my question/answer session:
A: Warner Bros
Q: What do you get when your head and rectum occupy the same point in space and time?
