Will blu-ray d.v.d. replace the c.d.?

[AlexKx]

Will blu-ray d.v.d. replace the c.d.? If so when? I am holding off currently for the past year and next for the entire pop cannon to be given this new format, updated, and re-released on blu-ray d.v.d. so I can have the option of 2.0, 5.1 plus all the extra bonuses, alternate versions of songs, demos, outtakes, instrumentals, short promtional films (which are music videos), making of short promotional films, film of recording the l.p.s, interviews (old and new), any news coverage, and whatever else information pertaining to that specific l.p. I am hellbent waiting for these things like a madman. I just need the money now, eh?

+1 I haven't purchased a CD in a LONG time. Last CD I got was for free at a concert.

This has to be a record for reincarnation of an old thread, 5 years Love the "blu-ray d.v.d" terminology and no it won't because it seems you can only find the new Tom Petty BD-Audio on Amazon or at his website....

For those who like high quality sound, a hybrid CD/BD could support high quality music reproduction without the compromises inherent in DVDA and SACD, whilst with appropriately high quality digitisation a BD recorder could be great for archiving LPs, 12" and tapes ...

Hi Blu-Wave,

But are these "coulds" or "wills" in the Blu-ray standard?

And is there any inclination to put backward compatibilty for DVD-A, SACD, and HDCD discs in every Blu-ray player? If not, I can't see them surviving in the long term... which might I say really, really, really, really sucks!
(is anybody listening?)

Many BD players (if not all) will include support for DVD-A, SACD, HDCD,...

PS3:

Disc Media

CD PlayStation CD-ROM, PlayStation 2 CD-ROM, CD-DA, CD-DA (ROM), CD-R, CD-RW, SACD, SACD Hybrid (CD layer), SACD HD, DualDisc, DualDisc (audio side), DualDisc (DVD side)
DVD: PlayStation 2 DVD-ROM, PlayStation 3 DVD-ROM, DVD-Video, DVD-ROM, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW
Blu-ray Disc: PlayStation 3 BD-ROM, BD-Video, BD-ROM, BD-R, BD-RE

No audio standard has yet been settled for BD. And there is no need for one I believe.

I have no understanding as to why the entire music industry are not on their way to re-releasing everything on blu-ray d.v.d.s. Why would this not be the case? They already for the past year if not two years have been releasing dual discs. What's the real difference except that blu-ray is way better? Why would the public not want the option of their c.d.s to have 5.1 plus loads of bonus features if the l.p. has them which could be anything such as the short promotional films (music videos), alternate versions of songs, unreleased songs, demos, outtakes, instrumentals, film interviews, and whatever else providing information and content related to any c.d. every released PERIOD!! They could even include new filmed interviews. In case you all do not know most l.p.s have short promotional films (again music videos) even going as far back as the 1960's. VH1 Classic play them all the time and they have been released on d.v.d. and home videos for years now.) This seems to be a phenomenal option that would rock the music industry in my opinion. Where's the interest? I am foaming at the mouth hell bent for these to be released and SOON too yet there seems to be little interest for anyone. If this is the case why are there so many c.d.s and music d.v.d.s in stores such as Best Buy and whereever else?
