assuming you already have either a Blu-ray player

HD multichannel sound on those disks (either
Dolby TrueHD, or DTS high def, or "lossless"
5.1 PCM) comparable to SACD?


Yeah but what are the odds that there will be pure music audio discs
of any consequence on those media?


*IF* the music industry is at all interested in selling multichannel
music, it would be insane of them NOT to move to these formats, since
in a relatively few years, everyone will have DVD players that can play them
(unlike SACD and DVD-A).
