New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

There is no SACD policy, new releases are just based on individual decisions

Deutsche Grammophon stopped releasing SACDs, but then recently issued one title (Stravinsky/Bartok by Salonen), which is probably due to contractual reasons.

Sony Japan just released a dozen jazz SACDs, which are all reissues from the audiophile Three Blind Mice label.

Some pop SACDs are being released because the artists insist on multichannel remixes, as the same albums have already been reissued on CD multiple times.

There are so many other examples that show that almost no company (except for a few small classical and audiophile labels) has a consistent SACD policy, and that decision to release a title on SACD are being made based on individual circumstances. This is also true of these planned Genesis reissues.

You can't revive a format with just a batch of releases by one artist.
