Sean, hey I just got through agreeing with you on another posts ! stop makeing sense right now or Sony will send you to your room with no music for a week, or maybe just the current SACD selections to choose from. I have SACD only because it happened to be included in the s9000es I bought for DVD/CD playback. I really could not be happier with the unit, but I am just frustrated after hearing the same 3 disc over and over I want to hear some of my other favorites which are mostly rock. I ordered the Aerosmith, don't really like the new stuff all that much but it looks like that will be as close as I might get for a while.
