. . . that digital hi-rez is fragmented among downloads, SACD, and Blu-ray (which has succeeded DVD-Audio as the the main disc-based carrier of hi-rez PCM - with or without a picture).
Even among downloads, we're starting to see fragmentation, as some sites are beginning to offer DSD downloads. Perhaps this may not be as much of an issue in the long run, IF equipment which supports the various file types becomes the norm.
I do agree that CD may indeed be on the decline, but, even so, I believe that CD sales are still orders of magnitude more than SACD or vinyl.
