Coping in an Age of Uncertainty


there have been numerous threads here, i know, about sacd v. dvd-a, upsampling, oversampling, etc. a number of these threads have included discussions of which, if any, new digital format will replace what we now call “redbook” cd’s. i don’t wish to rehash these discussions. rather, i’d like to hear from others how they are coping with the “age of uncertainty” in the realm of digital audio. is it better to “roll the dice” and invest in sacd or dvd a? ignore the contenders for the new and get the best possible out of redbook cd’s? buy with upgradeability firmly in mind? follow another path? i don’t post this query out of mere curiosity. i really haven’t figured out what course i should follow. i’d appreciate your giving me a hand. -kelly

Very easy to do business with.
According to reports from CES in Vegas two new formats are on the horizon. SACD and DVD-A may already be dead ends.
I bought a good enough CD player and spent the rest on vinyl. Or rather I PLAN to spend the rest on my vinyl front end. I'm not certain if I'll ever buy any more SACDs at this point. I figure 75 years from now, I'll still be enjoying my LPs. :-)
Life is nothing if not uncertain. Live. That means you will need good music for the trip. If CD are a thing of the past and you lost some coing along the way, does it really matter?
