SACD/DVD-A player for computer?

[jclark]

Anyone have experience with an internal or external SACD/DVD-A player?
I'm not sure if any DVD player would work given the proper software or if you need a dedicated unit. All the computer gurus I ask give me this vacant look followed by "What's SACD?". My primary interest is to get my SACD & DVD-A discs onto i-tunes, but integrating my computer into my audio system could be next. Thanks.

No SACD drives (yet) for computers. You can only rip the Redbook layer with an internal or external drive.
