Where is All the DSD?


Ever since last fall when Sony made the announcement that they would start releasing hi quality music files, DSD, I have been waiting with great anticipation to get those. Acoustic Sounds (and other online retailers) followed-up immediately with their own announcements that much more DSD content was on its way.... What happened? I check every several days hoping to fine loads of new DSD files available on AS and other stores; so far, I am not seeing them. Yes, there are a few decent DSD titles out there, but so far it has been a big let down. What went wrong?

Yep, as usual, they want to charge us too much for the same music again... How many times do we have to pay the record companies for a copy of our favorite album(s) which we bought on plain classic vinyl, then on cassette for the car, then on "Perfect Sound Forever", then on MFSL re-mastered vinyl, then on half-speed remasted vinyl, then on heavy-weight 200 gr vinyl, then on 45-speed heavy 200 gr vinyl, then on 256k MP3 so it would fit on our iPod, then downloaded in 44/16 PCM, then on 96/24 PCM, and then on 64 DSD (which sounds pretty good to my ears)....

When Acouustic Sounds has 25,000 DSD titles I will get excited... Let's just hope that they don't raise the price above the $25 -$28 range which is already EXTREMELY high for a computer file with NO liner notes, no song lyrics, and nothing to hold in your hand and look at....
