Now what?? :-\ :'(

High Quality CD?

I don't think this is a format that the British EMI approved. It's just another high tech buzz aiming at making more profit, more like SHM-CD. I once asked EMI to issue Rattle M9th in DVD-Audio as they did for Rattle's Berlin M10. I don't think they took my request seriously though.

Another discouraging factor is the high exchange rate - 3800Yen is like $42 :-[

Thank for the info. anyway.

John,
