i'm sure that others here know the answer,
but are you a fan of SACD, or not?

I'm a fan of any practical technology that provides improved sound quality.

If you think that SACD has little merit, then what does have merit?

Dolby TrueHD seems to have merit. It seems to be an envelope that can
contain a wide variety of alternative audio formats. Some are useful, some
are not. Its major practical advantage is that it finally prys mainstream
DVD releases away from AC3. AC3 was simply growing long in the tooth, and
was not all that efficient.
