The fact that EMI decided to release the Genesis albums on SACD/DVD prooves that the music industry does not want to wait for bluray/HDDVD to release high-rez sound. Probably it will take years to have the players sold to be profitable. In the meantime SACD will prove itself as a solid replacement for cd, and is there to stay. Haven't been so optimistic for months!!Berlin
