Well for one thing, it still cost 4x to 6x to make hybrid discs as it does to make single layer CD discs. For another thing, some players have trouble reading hybrids. For another thing, the original master recording may not have been done in "DSD". Finally, the authoring costs to make the SACD master are significantly higher than for CD.Pretty much the same reasons that none of the major labels routinely released hybrid discs.
