I believe content in PCM on these are called DVD-A discs for DVD-audio, and they are extremely rare :frown:DVD video allows 4 possible audio formats : PCM, MP2, Dolby Digital and DTS. the 3 laters are lossy, but the first one is lossless.
The maximum bitrate allowed is 6144 kbps.
Thus it is possible on a DVD video to have a stereo audio track in PCM 96 kHz 24 bits (4600 kbps). Which is technically superior to CD.
