In Reply to: So how many people are using the DVD Audio function? posted by Ole Lund Christensen on March 4, 2004 at 06:19:52:
But since these players are more expensive in general you can bet that people buying these players are more knowledgeable about their players capabilities.As pointed out below this comparison is meaningless.
Any fool can understand that sacd's 'succes' is largely because a small audiophile community supports it.
These people are just a tiny fraction of the market and they are not taken seriously by most of the record industry.This 'succes' is in reality not even a succes but a loss...
Audiophiles are willing to buy lots of music anyway. If there wasn't sacd they would have bought the cd. So instead of selling a cheaper to produce cd they now sell a more expensive to produce sacd/hybrid.
It's just a sale that replaces another sale with a smaller profit margin.DVD Audio is more or less a new market that needs to be developed.
First of all to migrate the music business to a better protected DVD format. And also to attract people to buy music again by offering a more attractive 'album experience'.
It's about reviving a business.Ps.
The average cd buying habit was around 15 redbooks a year...
So that's why 5 discs per sacd player cannot be considered a success.
It's because we all know that sacd's 'succes' is largely supported by a tiny fraction of the market (audiophiles) who are supposed to buy far more discs than this 15 disc per year avarage for redbook.Frank
