But PCM can do that too.

Thereafter, you make CD , mp3, DVD-A or even LP...it
means nothing. The re-emergence of rolling Stones in SACD and thereafter in
CD or both simultaneously was pastrly DSD or SACD made it possible to save
what could be lost forever. Or atleast this the story that was told by SACD
white paper.

If you mean, DSD was originally developed as an archiving medium, that's so.

Yet interestingly, DSD was exposed as having a fatal and fundamental
flaw, so totally failed as an archival medium,

Deutsche Grammaphon, for one, agrees. They archive in PCM.

and the hybrid DSD-Wide
is now the Sony studio standard.


I've left out, too, the whole aspect involving expiration of
CD-related patents as an impetus towards developing a new format....
