HDCD, any new titles coming out?

neil young, mavericks and beck all were hdcd

I listen to almost all types of music. Most of it, however, is country. A lot of the recent country albums are HDCD.

I heard that Microsoft had bought Pacific Microsonics and that the first thing they did was to pull the plug on HDCD - I could be wrong. (in fact I hope I am, I just recently bought the Classe CDP 1 with an 'HDCD' decoder.) Anyone else hear about this nasty rumour ?

The HDCD website does not seem very up-to-date. In fact, I have look at it pretty extivensively and have found a lot of mistakes and CDs that are HDCD that are not included there. I have found that CDs encouded with HDCD on my Cary 308 to be VERY SWEET. I hope more new releases or reissues are HCDC.

Try Ebay. I search for HDCD's on ebay from time to time. I have been buying a few lately and most are coming from China. I just bought three yesterday for a grand total of $0.03 with shipping charges of $19.97. Not hard to see where they're making their money but still a lot less than the import shops.
