Default Not SACD

So I finally got a universal player and was looking forward to an
afternoon of Miles Davis in surround sound. All of the discs are
marked 'SACD' and one even has '360 Sound' on the label.


"360 Sound" is just a Columbia marketing term; it's been on their LPs
since the early 60s. It doesn't imply that it's a surround-sound
recording. The Miles Davis CDs I've got have "360 Sound" but not
"SACD" on the label, so it does sound like they just used the wrong
artwork on the ones you've got...
