It would depend on the bitrate and the flag for DTS-HDMA.

Aren't you then referring to BD5 and BD9 discs? They are very different from a DVD-Video compilation.

Absolutely.

I'm pretty sure it's over with, since the people involved were apparently laid off. Laid off generally means the position is not to be refilled.

It isn't likely we will ever see commercial music releases using DTS-HD MA on DVD media. BD5 and BD9 (Blu-ray file structure on a DVD5 and DVD9) isn't an officially supported format therefore many Blu-ray players and 100% of DVD players won't play those discs. Even AVCHD isn't supported by all Blu-ray players although it is officially supported by most Blu-ray players, notably all Sony and all Panasonic players do support it if I recall correctly. I don't know if the PS3 will play BD5 and BD9 discs since I don't have any of them to test.
Here is what Wikipedia offers on BD5 and BD9:

As far as my guess for the next Quadio title, no idea and I don't know if it will be a DVD-V or a Blu-ray release if it does happen.

The OPPO BDP-83 will play DTS-HDMA recorded on to DVD-R and DVD+R. I assumed that was a common capability. Since that assumption has been somewhat cast in doubt, I am curious to hear which other players can or can not do the same. Blu-Ray players, of course...
How are you creating this disks? Do you have a HDMA encoder or are you somehow stripping it off a Blu-ray disk?
I think they should keep them all the same at this point. Switching over to Blu-ray part way through the series probably wouldn't help anything, and there's still those Blu-ray hold-outs.
No idea about what it would be but Procol Harum with The Edmonton Orchestra would be cool.
From the jacket notes:
"We found time to try our quadraphonic effect tapes this afternoon; that explosion would shake the foundations. Keith tells me the seagulls sound like they're circling above your head when you're out there. The amplified choir should be coming from both the stage and the back of the theatre to surround the audience with their sound".
Imagine the hype: "Experience the concert as if you had been there".

I agree. I would also like to hear something new to my ears. Something REALLY "from the vaults". A previously never before released Quad would be the shizzle. 
And would you folks give it a rest about what format it should be? This thread was about artists and titles. Next person that mentions Blu-Ray gets bitch slapped. It's starting to get annoying. Go start your own Record Company if you want Quad Blu Ray.

Those people were laid off before the first quadio disc was released.
That's very unfortunate, because they were good people, but it didn't kill the program, obviously.
If I were betting, I'd put my money on the Doobie Brothers for the next release.
Well, I sent John (from Rhino) an email and it didn't bounce, but I didn't get a response, so it either means he's still there and can't talk about future projects, or he has nothing to say. It's another matter of wait and see.

The fun thing about the "Quadio" series so far has been that they're usually very close to release once we finally hear about them. Let's hope that's just the case and they are still planning more, but can't talk about 'em yet.
My prediction for the next Quadio release:
Beach Boys: Wildflower/Surf's Up (a two-fer)
Beach Boys: Wildflower/Surf's Up (a two-fer)
Hmm. Makes me think about the cut from "Holland" that was on the VH1 Classic Rock DVD-A. That was obviously from a discrete source. They could have that in the vault as well.
if "Holland" were ever to be released in quad I would run starkers up Whitehall ......

I want stuff from the Columbia vaults - like the quad mix of "Company" and Janis Joplin "Pearl" - and Leonard Bernstein's "Mass". I'd pay major bucks to have them, untampered with, from the original quad masters. And unreleased stuff from MCA/Universal's vault, like the quad mix of the soundtrack to the film "Jesus Christ Superstar" and the unused surround sound mix of Olivia Newton-John's "Physical." (A full surround mix, meant to be SQ encoded, was done for the LaserDisc release, but it was never used)
