If HDCD is indeed dead, Pacific Microsonics really shot itself in the foot with its licensing restrictions. For IMO, that stifled the chances of the format really taking off... Too bad, because after hearing Mannheim Steamroller's HDCD "Christmas Extraordinaire," this format done right yielded the best sonics I've ever heard from a digital disc source, be it standard CD, HDCD CD, SACD, or DVD-A.
