You can play high quality 5.1 or 2.0 audio from SACD

Only because the flip side *is* a CD, and without that SACD
wouldn't sell at all. You could do the same with any new format.
I personally would like to see SACD winning over
DVD-A. Because of
different coding, it also simplifies D/A converters
It doesn't at all. And it complicates all the rest. Any idea of how
to mix, filter, or in general do whatever non-trivial operation
without first going to PCM ? It's possible, but horribly complicated.
and thus improves sound quality.
Again, that's a myth.
