Well, the only reason I heard about it was users asking about it (and I
think it was less than 3 people).
Nobody I know cares even the slightest bit about DVD-Audio (not to
mention that nobody has a player for it).
Which I think was his point. None of those that have the capabilities of
circumventing it care about it - and as long as that music is available
on CD they probably never will - unless for the pure fun of it.
That is something different from DVD, that provided a real value vs VHS.
