Nomenclature?
The word pulse in the term Pulse Width Modulation is somewhat confusing, as there appear to be no "pulses" per se anywhere to be found.
I believe this should read 'Pulse Code Modulation'. Please confirm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ktims (talk • contribs) 09:37, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
High Definition Media
From what I have read, many Blu-ray movies have PCM soundtracks. But HD DVD? I don't think ANY of my HD DVD movies have a PCM soundtrack. I am not sure "many" applies to HD DVD PCM soundtracks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.71.201.149 (talk) 12:05, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
Requested move that affects a redirect to this page
An editor has requested that the disambiguation page for "PCM" be moved to the base name, which currently redirects to this article. Please see the discussion at Talk:PCM#Requested move. -- JHunterJ (talk) 11:42, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
