Friends,
I have noticed an encouraging trend for Super Audio - major print ads to advertise the new Dylan series and Dark Side of The Moon.
Observation #1
Home theater magazines are running a full page Capitol Records ad discussing the advantages of Super Audio and Dark Side's availability. Capitol has some great catalog titles so I am wondering if they are planning more releases soon.
Observation #2
The Wall Street Journal and Stereophile (October) both ran full page Dylan ads with a retailer featured in the lower right corner and specific mention of Super Audio. The Journal had Best Buy's logo and Stereophile had Borders' logo.
This is a step up in marketing commitment. I suppose it is possible that Sony did some common "cooperative adverts" with a series of retailers. It is also interesting since it shows a stepped up commitment to Super Audio from Borders which has been lackluster in the past.
Also, here is some info on the remastering of the Dylan series from HFR:
