Personally, I'm rarely dissatisfied with a good CD or hi-rez PCM, either native or upsampled.
It just feels and sounds fine.
But I don't hate DSD the way some hate CD and PCM.
DSD is fine by me but not universally better than quality PCM, IMHO. For this reason, I choose to stick with PCM and not re-purchase in DSD for albums that I already own. If I do make a decision to re-purchase an album that I have on CD, I'll buy PCM usually at 24/96.
I'm not one to fret too much over barely discernible differences.
