looks suspicious to me
It looks to me like the seller pulled some incorrect info from this site. I think its a normal SACD.

So you don't need an SACD player to get the HiRez? Then why even make it an SACD.
I think we need to hear from our SACD experts about this. Brian? Are you listening?
either the seller is mistaken or its not the real McCoy since there was no hybrid SACD of "Thriller". all SACD incarnations (whether in card slipcase, plastic slipcase or the Japanese release) were single layer and not playable in CD players.
its got more than a faint whiff of bullshit about it, including the whole DSD/Flac layer thing and the claim of being able to play it in Hi-Res on a CD player.. but i don't know it might be the real deal after all..?

This is some ridiculous BS.
"DSD/FLAC" layer?
"The third layer is the finished product, a combination of the first two layers utilizing both concepts to produce the final result. The HYBRID 3 Super Audio CD!"
So it's a Hybrid SACD. And a bootleg. Nice one.

"The ingenious newly developed HYBRID 3 incorporates 3 CD layers and intertwines and combines them"
Ah - Intertwining, that well known methodology. Glad they cleared that up.

The only reviews are from the same person with bogus discs sold!

It's amazing to me that these conmen can continue to thrive.
So a common CD player cant read the SACD layer, but it can read the 3rd layer? This smells bad.
infused with the finest snake oil, we take our CD-R's and intertwine them with a load of old codswallop and some files we got off a site in Russia
So it's a SACD-R copy of the actual SACD with a downmix layer for CD players that was gen'd from the DSD layer.
The operative term for this is "boot"

Never underestimate the gullibility of the public!
Just look on eBay and see how many Beatles Bootleg BluRay's are sold of the classic Beatles albums, claimed to be in 5.1 and official "foreign" issues with bonus tracks and all. The seller claims they picked them up on a trip, but they have a seemingly endless supply. "Please Please Me" in 5.1 must be a hoot!

This part really cracked me up:
Last I checked, that album was recorded two-track. I wonder if he just took the stereo mix and turned it sideways?

Those Beatles BluRays are all over Yahoo Japan. They even have other stuff that could only be derived from mono bootlegs and stolen outtakes. If it isn't an EMI release, I stay away from it. As to the Hybrid 3 SACDs, I am glad they've been debunked here before I found a title I might like to own. Enough legitimate stuff to empty my piggy bank with first.
First, Elvis.....then MJ?
