Good enough for me. Now just give us a source for those numbers, and
for the claim that they are growing.


I already have....they came from Sony and SACDnet.

As to growth...1150 titles in 15 months, vs. 3000 in prior70 months. Fair
enough?

No, because you were responding to a post about VINYL sales. (That may
not have been clear unless you traced the thread back several posts.)
So we're sort of a cross purposes here.

But since you've brought up SACD, you do stack the deck a bit when you
count back to the very introduction of the format. From zero,
everything is a growth market. And a good deal of the early non-growth
was, I suspect, a function of inadequate production capacity rather
than non-existent demand.

So, growing demand? Not sure, but maybe. Viable niche market?
Absolutely.

Which, as you know, is what I've always said!
