What gaming console was DVD-A bundled with, again?
DVD-A was an inferior format to SACD, kind of like HD DVD being an inferior format to Blu-ray. I'm of the opinion that consumers have a responsibility to vote for the better format with their dollars.
Maybe if that had happened with SACD, the format wouldn't have tanked. Let's hope the same fate doesn't befall the better HD video format.
