unfortunately today i can count on fingers the SACD releases that I wish to have so i consider this news as teaspoon in the ocean.
Marakenetz-DSOM is arguably the most famous record release related to Hi-fi (rightly or wrongly)ever, so this a major release for SACD.
I wouldn't disagree about the lack of titles but 2002 saw the first few new releases by major artists on SACD very close to their CD releases-Bowie,Beck and Peter Gabriel (soon anyway).
With the Stones releases and the Dylan ones soon to come things are moving in the right direction,even if slowly.
Of course none of these facts guarantees the success of the format but do not doubt DSOM on SACD is major news and a major victory for SACD over DVDA.
Responses are spot on! If this medium is going to survive they have to start putting out music we want. How hard is it for The Suits to look back and see what sold well in the past. That's what people are going to buy again since the new releases are for the most part a steaming pile of excrement!
I have probably eight or ten SACDs but hundreds of LPs and CDs. I would never buy another redbook CD if I could get the same on SACD.
No one besides us audiogoners knows about sacd(slight exaggeration).This does not bode well for sacd or dvd-a.We all know this in the dark side of our minds.
Also..the Who are scheduled to release SACDs...and since EMI has an arrangement with SACD...I presume the Beatles will follow...Abbey Road studios also recently installed SACD recording/mixing equipment
