Yes, I am saying it is superior as a recording medium to both high resolution PCM and high speed analog tape.You are pleased because you think it is failing, and pleased because of issues unrelated to the fundamental merit of the technology.
Isn't that sort of like cutting off your nose to spite your face?
Personally, I give crap all about the other things ... I care about the music, and there DSD has it, hands down. 0 - 100K frequency response, over 110 db usable dynamic range ... simply superior.
As to the noise issue, you apparently read something somewhere, good for you. Now, go and get some direct experience and see if that changes your preconceptions.
