Will Microsoft kill DVD-A and SACD?


There are two new paradigms that Microsoft is trying to dominate: peer-to-peer computing and media. (You can quote me on this.) I could wax eloquent on this but I'd have to bill you.

Anyway, Microsoft has purchased HDCD technology and licensing.

What effect will this have on the new hi-res formats? Will HDCD now replace these other formats since it has the backing of the folks from Washington State?

Wonder if this technology could result in "Blue Speaker of Death" should the system crash?

By the way Lugnut, I am equal in my admiration of Bill Gates as you.
I can see it now, Bill Gates image on every album cover.......posed, head cocked, listening to an antique record machine.

That old shaded dog "Nipper" will be missed.
