Soundhound,
Since you work in the recording industry, I have a question for you. Is the recording industry embracing the two "high definition" audio formats in the original recordings masters?

I ask because I hear a big improvement in the sounda of hybrid cds that are recorded in DSD even if played through a normal CD player. The latest from Alison Kraus and James Taylor in hybrid format certainly sound good through SACD player, but what really surprised me is their quality of sound even when they are played as a cd in a plain redbook cd player.
