New DVD-Audio music releases and talk about the latest players.

Re: FYI . . .

That was due to the fact that completely different companies own the release rights to the Dire Straits material in Europe than in the US. BIA came out on Warner in the US, and Warner has never put a SPARS code on their pop/rock CDs in the US (with the exception of the '80s releases on the Island label, which was owned by Warner at the time). In Europe, however, BIA came out on Mercury (Vertigo), owned by PolyGram (now part of Universal Music Group) -- and they've been putting SPARS codes on their CDs since the early days of CD.
