Another sign SACD is dying

In my opinion it is against the nature of an audiophile/music lover to be a whiner. I embraced almost every format that came along and enjoyed every minute that I spent with it. Dying is inevitable, be it any format or us.

Happy listening to everyone on this thread! :)

Quadophile...Well said! I enjoyed my SQ LPs, some of which were really good. I still have the Vinyl but not the decoder. I have tried Dolby PLII with them, but it doesn't work too well.

"..I even love the rounded jewelery case"

Yes. Loke those Telarc jewel cases. All CD cases should be thus.

Since forever have been sick and tired of the seals they put on CD's for USA consumer consumption. For many years I've cussed the "good for sellers, bad for customers" way of packaging CD's. When I purchase a CD without the asinine shrink wrap and the underlying sticky seals - I say ahhhh. I can do without the stickers put on outside the jewel cases too. Look like crap and impossible to remove without sticky residue. These issues alone drive some music consumers to downloads.
