In Reply to: Channel Classics getting out of SACD mostly posted by diw on April 23, 2016 at 10:48:12:
Looking at my somewhat modest SACD collection I have more BIS than any other label followed by Channel Classics, if Channel drops SACD then I will stop buying their products, BIS for a long time gave us similar warnings but I keep my fingers crossed, they are still offering the format. With Channel the handwriting was on the wall a long time ago with their super cheap cardboard packaging.
Personally I prefer physical media and if hi-rez becomes download only option then I will simply give up SACD.
Despite all the gloom I believe that SACD will not totally disappear, Japanese will carry the torch but at much higher price.
