arent pcm used in dvd audio , hd-video, and blue ray disk where dsd is sacd ?

@riley804 is right. If your source material is CD, then you have PCM audio.

 

Ripping SACD from a disc requires special software and specific models of universal disc players.

yeah me.

all i did was google the OP's question using google, which i then found a site that explained this.

All FLAC and ALAC (Apple's version) is PCM and lossless.

MQA is PCM but lossy.
