>>why not 96 24 as a generally accessible medium with every DVD player so that the discs would be more attractive in the marketplace Is there something in the audio layer of a DVD disc which prevents a standard DVD player playing back a 96 24 disc in stereo format.<<

There is nothing intrinsic to a DVD-V disc that would have prevented its use as a medium for 2ch uncompressed hi-rez audio. The primary reason that this type of product never took off commercially is simple - it lacks robust copy protection. Copy protection was so important to the content providers that most of them would not even consider DVD-V for commercial music releases. In fact, DVD-Audio's original release was substantially delayed because influential committee members felt that its copy-protection scheme was insufficient. They held it back until CPPM could be added to the specification.
