New Audio Disc Formats and Copyrights  "CNN has an article on Super Audio CD digital watermarking and the lack of digital outputs on any SACD or DVD-Audio players. Covers dealer responses, tech issues, and consumer options in a good summation of this technology."  [Slashdot]

I hope nobody gets fired for this.  CNN accidentally ran an AP story titled "New discs: Unfriendly but better sound," with the subhead, "Some urge consumers to wait it out."  The story reveals how the SACD and DVD-Audio formats steal our Fair Use rights, and as a result are being snubbed by audiophiles.

Warner Music has released a few SACD titles.  CNN is owned by the same company that owns Warner (media conglomerate AOL-TimeWarner).  I bet whoever decided to run this story gets called into his boss' office.
