RE: just so!

That's what I would have suspected. The relevance of tbe question to me is that there are some very good DACs that don't do DSD. So, if i migrate away from a disc spinner (as I am inclined to do), it might be handy to have all PCM files in mass storage. Some of my SACDs are SACD only, so there would be no way for me to get that music without ripping it to a DSD file and then converting that file to PCM.

And, as you all suggest even hybrid discs might benefit from ripping and converting the SACD layer rather than just ripping the RB layer.
