Well, that's your take, having witnessed tussles for supremacy between industrial interests and academic interests on research ventures, my take is rather more symphatic to the corporate interests and the very real issues of long term profitability that they face. Credit to Sony/Philips that they had the guts to go market with a technology that is against the grain of current thinking.
Originally posted by Music Fanatic Well, if you are going to say that we may as well point out that as a simple matter of marketing, SACDs tend to be more numerous and have a much more diverse set of content than DVD-A. I have little doubt that as of today, SACD is winning the marketing battle (although, perhaps losing the war, since I'm not sure either format has enough traction to last.) |
