Old codecs to be (re)used on new DVD format?

[quickie quote]
"Last week, studio giant Sony Pictures quietly voted for "none of the
above," and took a swipe at the new codec formats. The new advanced
codecs aren't immediately necessary for discs released in Sony's
high-capacity Blu-ray format, Sony Pictures executives said in an
interview with CNET News.com, and the studio would instead use the
11-year-old MPEG-2 video codec used on today's DVDs."
