I've never heard this claim before, and frankly, it doesn't make a lot of sense to me. PCM is a much easier format to work with. DSD seems to be developed with the intent to make it as difficult as possible to archive, copy and otherwise use. In other words, a good system for protecting copywrites, and preventing piracy. Not to mention selling unique recording & playback gear, with the associated royalties.... Can you point out any links or sources to support this? -- DCtoDaylight Audiophile wish list: Zero Distortion, Infinite Signal to Noise Ratio, and a Bandwidth from DC to Daylight ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DCtoDaylight's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7284 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48748 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
