Universal family of Labels have released: 504 SACDs
BMG Family of Labels have released: 78 SACDs
Sony Family of Labels have released: 501 SACDs
The new SonyBMG: 6 SACDs

The 5 Moody Blues to be released in 2 weeks is on Decca as well as the upcoming remaining two. The new Four Seasons released a couple of weeks ago is on Decca. The 9 RCA Living Stereos released last week are on BMG/Sony - note they are counted below as BMG as that is how SA-CD.net has them listed. All three companies are clearly still in the game, though other than 5 complete opera's from Living Stereo they are keeping quite about what titles.

I told you the truth about what I read at the time it didn't seem important so I didn't save the web address but because you are being so mean I will find it for you as it stated in my reply. Youâ€™ve got a search engine If you want more information that is what a search engine is for!! 150 SACDs in one year seems to me a too small a figure for Universal as they have nearly 100 labels.

Here are what the labels you said DO NOT SUPPORT SACD, have released so far, with many more to come!

SA-CD.net and other searches on the internet - Teresa 17:33:18 02/26/06 (10)

You constantly drop these huge numbers of SACDs that are going to be released, but never back the claim with a citation - Thornhill 05:51:44 02/27/06 (8)

OK, OK this Saturday while I am searching for new releases if these numbers appear again. - Teresa 16:04:26 02/27/06 (0)

I don't take notes, I'm here to have fun. But the numbers are either in posts somewhere on SA-CD.net - Teresa 15:29:53 02/27/06 (6)
