One of the main factors holding up the rollout of SACDs by big-name artists is the fact that their lawyers want to secure royalties for all the content of the SACD--the CD layer, the 2-ch SACD content, and the Mch content. Royalty fees triple.You should be under no illusion; these same lawyers will try to milk these dual disks for all they can, and record labels already being squeezed by tight budgets and poor sales will not be able to mete out that kind of cash for royalties on a single title.
What does this dual-disk approach do for us? Absolutely nothing that isn't provided by SACD. If the industry can't make SACD succeed, they should hang up the high-resolution idea, instead of confusing the issue and making decisions harder on the retailers and the consumers. I'm all for choices and competition in consumer products, but this is ridiculous. And not well planned by the industry at all.
