In Reply to: Re: SACD is the High Resolution Audio format, DualDisc is a VIDEO format, Mr. DVD-A Cheerleader re-read Sony's quote: posted by Neil Wilkes on August 25, 2004 at 08:26:11:
Why's that? SACD gives you everything but the video (which audiophiles don't care about anyway), and better sound (IMPHO) to boot. Joe Sixpack may not buy the SACD if it's not single inventory, but he's not gonna care about a DVD-A/CD flipper either, for the same reason. He won't buy them unless he has no choice.
