Another sign SACD is dying


I went to Best Buy to purchase some SACDs and after searching for the special section containing sacds and xrcds without success, I asked the salesman where they were. He informed me that they were all removed since dual disc is now the rage. WOW!

audio software(cd's, lp's, sacds ,dvd's) have collectively taken a 25-30% tumble for the last two years running. the slack isn't being offset by purchased downloads either. a virtual culture shift is making music less important (to own)for many

Exactly my point made above. Much of the decline in purchased music is related to the increase in computer/video gaming and the use of the internet. It'a an entertainment paradigm shift.
And to your surprise, that is exactly my point too. Somehow you and I have not clicked on this thread, I guess we just see a different ending.

I again want to thank you for the civility of this discussion. This is without question the most fun I have had disagreeing on Audiogon in years. Tvad, you are in my admiration.
TVAD(GRANT) and JD thank you for being both gentlemen
in this topic, I have learned a lot,YOU ARE BOTH TO
BE ADMIRE, TO KEEP COOL ON THIS THREAD.Thanks
The argument that SACD will die because the masses won't get into it is not valid since LP's are still around and clearly not something the masses listen to.

There are such things as niche products that can survive without the full general public support.
