I read this on a couple of other forums too.
To date, I can not find any BD players, high-end or otherwise, that are said to 'decode' DVD-A. Some do decode SACD. Has anyone tried SACD on the Panasonic or others which do not list SACD as a compatible disk? Wonder if it will still playback the lossy tracks like DVD-A.
Of course, no Sony branded player will decode DVD Audio, but I think Sony's arm may be longer than we realize.
