Infinity M: SACD or DVDA?
I saw that Infiniti's new M concept came out with "5.1 decoding" audio. Does anyone know if it reads DVDA or SACD? What other auto manufacturers plan on using DVDA? I figured the more there are, the less likely the format will be obsolete.

Not directly, but it speaks more to the potential longevity of DVD-A support which is near and dear to all TL owners. The more auto makers that start to offer DVD-A players (over SACD) will help the long term potential for the survival of the format.
So, it's not entirely off topic.

marquis shares my sentiments. I am not trying to discuss the Infinity M, just trying to see how many other car dealers are adopting this DVDA format. It makes sense that the more automakers that adopt it, the more likely it will grow.

Being a fan of South Park and the various other creations, DVDA takes a whole 'nother meaning.
