to say 'I dont' think the SCD-1 will ever become badly outdated' is almost silly. In the digital world, advances come at a staggering pace. Just look at the past 10 years and look at the path of the common CD sound to what we have today. Of course it will become badly outdated. It's just a matter of time.
I thought my $4500 Compaq P133 would never become badly outdated. Ha! 5 years later it made it to the local land fill....
I thought my Sony DVD7000 would never become badly outdated. Great build quality. Ha! 4 years later and it's relegated to the playroom by a $200 Panasonic.....
People get in and get out when the market is right. If you want a SCD-1 then by all means buy one. Enjoy it. A few years from now it might make a good boat anchor...
