Well allamala, if you did take a look at Zone 2 DVD subtitles, you would see arabic, chinese or hebrew languages that can't be handled with common fonts. Vobsub can manage them as it treats subtitles as bitmaps. Vobsub needs no character recognition process to get subtitles, so it's easy to rip and always clean (but sometimes big).
BSPlayer only support textual subtitles and needs dvobsub filter to handle bitmap subtitles.

Gabest's Media Player Classic (now v6.4.8.0) can make use of DVobsub to process subtitles embedded in all my OGM and MKV movies.
BSPlayer can do it for MKV (if no embedded chapter information) but not for OGM.
