Japan Sony and Japan Universal both are still releasing classical music SACDs.

As are a number of classical music labels.

Those are not my gear. The photo was taken from Facebook as it is.

Only a thousand, hmm

Based on its online store, the western SACD titles from Hong Kong Universal Music are typically restricted to be sold in the city of HK and Macau only. Probably because HK Universal only has the rights to sell the SACD in those 2 cities only.

As for the 1,000 copies pressed, that's probably referring to the first 1,000 copies being individually numbered. There may be additional copies pressed but without being numbered.

That's a quarantune, if ever I heard one.

Meanwhile, I just might shell out for that Moore SACD...

Sure, the coronavirus is keeping everyone at home, but SACDs need to be released.

Part 2 of the Faye Wong SACD boxset coming April 3rd....

In fact, there’s out two new boxes

These 2 boxsets are big sellers. Surprisingly, both of Faye Wong's boxsets are taking a backseat to Shirley Kwan's. And Shirley Kwan severed her relationship with HK Universal Music just 2 weeks ago in a very public and unamiable way.

HK Universal Music still hasn't gotten to Faye Wong's albums on HK EMI, which HK Universal now controls.
