I would not bet on either's survival.

again, the report is rather misleading as from what I remember RIAA counts only single layer SACD's as SACD's and treats Hybrid SACD's like normal CD's in their stats

SACD Man, I reccomend checking out these labels.. Stockfisch-Records TACET-Website - english MA Recordings MDG-Musikproduktion Dabringhaus und Grimm Opus3 Records, an independent Swedish Record company. fonè records - fonè di giulio cesare ricci - official website

Yep. I have a least 1 disk from each of the labels. MFSL, FIM, opus3 are among some great labels. FIM can produce some incredible titles..
