Another sign SACD is dying

Jaybo,

Yeah that was mentioned in an earlier post, maybe by you. The newer realeases may be from an earlier pipeline, but the SACD recording won't stop coming out next year like you aniticipate (10-18 months)IMHO. So, basically you are saying that next year there will be 0 releases since this is just pipeline residuals?

There are other companies doing vinyl, not just MF. Companies go up, down, out of business, and back in business. That doesn't give the overall market condition - just a number on a company.

Also, what are your stats on redbook. RB sales have been going down as well because of online trading and mp3 player growth. Is redbook dying too? How come your not making that statement also?

JAYBO...what do the manufactures say?Are you just speculating or do you have definitive information.Honestly after hearing how good the cary 306 sacd is.I'm having hard time justifying keeping my analog frontend.

SACD (hybrid) will continue to be supported by the smaller labels for the foreseeable future as well as by the hardware manufacturers.

i have worked in product developement for several 'big' indies for the last decade. i also have friends at uni wea, and sony.... its outa here. the focus is all on upgrading(milking)number51 redbook and the internet.

So Jaybo what's the outlook for redbook? Sales going up? Or is that dying too, and where's the thread about redbook dying?

just wondering.
