Since the release of "Moving Pictures" on Blu-Ray Audio/DVD-Audio, I've been hoping that "2112" would get the same treatment, and it will be here very soon. Day one purchase for this Rush fan...

"I love songs about horses, railroads, land, Judgment Day, family, hard times, whiskey, courtship, marriage, adultery, separation, murder, war, prison, rambling, damnation, home, salvation, death, pride, humor, piety, rebellion, patriotism, larceny, determination, tragedy, rowdiness, heartbreak and love. And Mother. And God." ~ Johnny Cash

Don't see any mention of a 24-bit version, that would be pretty sad.
Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

Ah, outstanding! I will hold back on any buying, and wait to see if the 24/96 version shows up on HDTracks like it did with Moving Pictures. This is good news though!

Thanks Rick. In the cart at Amazon
There is something puzzling about them choosing DVD-A over SACD. Does not compute?Last edited by obieone; 11-19-2012 at 06:53 AM.
I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!
