Strange, isn't it?
How much did you have to spend on this Mars Rover? $2.5 billion? Well, you can upgrade a DVD-5 plant for less than a cost of one Playback Designs SACD player.

Rammiepie, I'm Polish so you have to come up with a different set of jokes ;)

Teresa: there are no such things as "blanks" in a SACD/DVD/CD factory, the disk is formed by polycarbonate injection molding. So why mention prices of DVD-R blanks in this context, if not by ignorance?

Actually Ralph, it was a "Sun" shot, we've not forgotten how to do things in style over here.
We are still trying to work out why the landing system failed?

Why, oh, why, audioholik would the US government get involved with SACD pressing plants? Guaranteed that 95% of Americans have never even heard of the format.
IMO, If anyone were to initiate this move, it would be Chad Kassem of Acoustic Sounds who BTW, has a very sophisticated Vinyl pressing facility at his disposal.
And sorry for the British inference but really don't know many Chopin jokes!

Q: What's musical and handy in a supermarket? A: A Chopin Liszt.
This one has nothing whatsoever to do with Chopin but is useful for taking this thread into exciting new territory...
A (US) tourist is sightseeing Vienna. At the tomb of Beethoven the touris is reading the commemorative engraving only to be distracted by a rustling noise from somewhere inside.
The tourist asks a local Viennese what the noise is.
"Oh, that is Beethoven. He's decomposing."
Bang! Bang!
Sorry Ralph, guys and girls.....
