Let me make this a little clearer for you Lee, as you totally agreed with my point but didn't realize you did so.
If you are buying a DVD-A you are not buying a CD in any form (i.e. another form of buying music). If you buy a Hybrid SACD you are buying a CD even if one primarily uses the Hi-res layers. No one said buyers of Hires will no longer purchase CD. There are not enough titles out or coming out to justify such a stance. Buying a DVD-A definitely shows however, that a buyer is using a delivery format that has nothing to do with the CD. CD can be pirated, hence the reason the industry is looking towards copy protected mediums like DVD-A and single layer SACD, as well as copy protected CD and MP3 delivery methods.
