I just got back from the Munich Show where we had a chance to talk to many people in the industry there about the future of SACD.I would say that the best-case scenario right now is that it holds on. In Munich there was no multichannel SACD demo, like there was in previous years, and absolutely no talk of it. Developers of SACD players seems to be slowing down with some of the big players offering two-channel SACD/CD player, which seems like it will be the high-end device to have right now, if you're into SACD, until something new comes along.
SACD has slowly been losing steam, and from what I learned in Munich, although it won't vanish, it's position in the marketplace will likely diminish further instead of grow.
