Anyone Playing SACD/DVD-As on a PC ?

Is it possible to play these formats on a PC? What software/hardware are you using?

I might buy a DVD-Audio disc to check it out, but the lack of ability to import songs into iTunes is still a huge barrier for me to view this format as anything but an experiment.

The SBA 2ZS has digital outputs. The DVD-A players I have seen all have analoge out only. I wonder if this thing will play all DVD-A or just those recorded in the clear, without copy protection. Can you store them as files on a hard drive? Please keep us posted.
