You can save better and fold down to your PCM format and then if the industry ever makes listening to music fun again you'll have a better format when people want to hear your music on SACD.

i wish i could agree but as i understand it DSD is most useful when mastering from analog, last in the chain (one generation). i hope i'm wrong on this, but unless you do the mastering yourself, i can't see how DSD could be a 'better' 2 track option in practical terms.

if you mix to DSD what would you master to?
