In Reply to: All forms of Hi-Res Downloads are going great here! They've replaced discs for me, and posted by oldmkvi on July 9, 2016 at 08:03:46:
I'm with you except for the DSD (although I use HQ Player sometimes too - just not set for DSD). But, hey, (as my wife always says) we wouldn't want everybody to be the same! ;-) I will say that if something really compelling comes out that's available only as a DSD download, then I may break down and put a DSD-capable DAC into my system too! (I do have the option of a direct DSD path right now, but only with SACD's via one of my players' analogue connections.)
And of course, there are downloads of Tay available too. OTOH, I think your download regimen may be similar to mine (mainly classical?) and the classical world tends not to run in to the same "CD res in high-res containers" problems which some listeners (here and on other sites) have posted complaints about. (In all my downloads over the years, I've run into it only once.)
