Kana813, what is the new DVD software you are referring to?

All I can say is that I have heard some of the best DVDa software that is available now, on some great 24/92 decoders, and I have been wholly disappointed. I will believe great DVD software when I hear it.

I have heard the Meitner in many configurations. It was the most popular digital front end at HE2003, and it consistantly performed amazingly well. I have also heard it outside the show in systems I am very familiar with.

According to UHF magazine in the October issue "the format war is over" and DVD-Audio is the new Betamax. They state that their were 160 companies behind DVD-A, but none of them "fed it". I guess that's why the DVD-A marketing coalition was recently formed. It's the first mention I've seen in any major audio publication making such a bold step in declaring victory.

Per capita, many used DVD-A's can be had at Amoeba stores in California for $6.95 while used CD's still generally command better prices depending on their conditions.
