Hmmm ok. I am trying to determine the best container format for future playability, and I figured that MP4 was a good candidate because it was pretty flexible, and its future support was virtually ensured due to its use in hardware players, mobile phone protocols, Quicktime, Youtube etc. But finding out that it can't do uncompressed audio is a disappointment.

I'd use Matroska, but I don't think its future playability is as assured - which influential companies are using it?

In other words, I don't want to open my videos in 10 or 15 years time and not be able to find some software online to play them in whatever OS I am using at the time.
