SACD availability


Are SACD discs still being made? Are they an evolutionary dead end? I do not see them in stores like Best Buy. I would love to buy a nice SACD player to replace my CD player but I'm concerned that SACD hasn't taken off and never will. What do you think? Any advice?

Thank you all for your replies. On Elizabeths's comment: I do not believe any company would invest millions of dollars designing, implementing, marketing and distributing a product just to destroy a competitor's product. It just doesn't make good business sense. This is especially true for Sony, which was struggling financially when they introduced SACD in the market.

I sincerely hope that studios do put out BlueRay music discs. With a storage capacity like that...and the potential to have a very high sampling rate, we can all rejoice. We'll see. Somehow I kind of doubt it because I think we would have seen it by now. But a boy can dream...
