New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

I don't think anyone will argue with you that discrete microphones. . .

. . . supporting the additional channels are generally going to sound better than synthesized output to those additional channels based on a reduced-channel input. However, I would also question your use of the word, "arbitrary" with respect to what the various decoding modes add to the signal. One person's "arbitrary" is another's "necessary". I mean, we're not talking "synthesized stereo" from the '60's anymore.
