[78-L] Mutter's Kreutzer

[Jeff Sultanof]

SACD was marketed just as poorly as Beta was. I love my SACDs; the sound is
incredible. They weren't priced low enough and are now difficult to find.

I just hope that someone has the foresight to realize the incredible sound
that is capable on Blu-ray discs and tries some audiophile releases in the
medium. I'd love to see a reissue of some of the really good quadraphonic
releases, just as one example.
