Ive picked up quite a few Dual Discs and I havnt had a problem with any of them except for Gold Medal by The Donnas and there was a recall on that disc.  I do love the surround sound mixes on NIN - With Teeth and Mudvayne - The End of All Things To Come.  I agree there needs to be a standard for the advanced res. but I can only listen to the dolby digital tracks as I only have a SACD player.  I wish that there were more hybrid SACDs but with the Dual Disc becoming so popular I have a feeling that it will become the format that sticks around for a good long while.  

Its a shame that the new DMB, Velvet Revolver, and Mudvayne - Lost and Found DDs dont have surround sound tracks on them.

I'm a fossil from the 2.0 world.  All I ever wanted was 24/96 stereo.   
Was that so much to ask for     ::)

couldnt agree more, although i prefer dsd 2 channel to 24/96 pcm...

but i have absolutely ZERO interest in surround mixes of music rignially recorded in mono or stereo...

You're in good company on DSD, Cheskey agrees loudly, in particular.
I don't see the science that makes it so.   Again, I'm a fossil. 
Higher clock can't be good because it "must" equal higher jitter has been my conumdrum.
On the other hand, it isn't possible to ABx SACD to DVD-A due to the different decoders.
Is it the process or the gear ?

Anyhow, I duck DSD for different reasons. Mostly because I don't have any DSD nor SACD gear, and I can't burn them, either.
When I can burn them, I may buy the gear.

Here's a wager for a one sealed, blank SACD disc:
Which happens first, the Phish Reunion tour or an SACD burning program is marketed for under $100 ?

My money's on the music.   :D
