    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    I have one of the original releases (on CD) of DSOTM from around 1984 and I also have the Hybrid CD that you have; I have compared them many times.............. its a hard thing to try and describe in words. I think if I had a dedicated SACD player, I could give a liitle more of a fair assessment, but I haven't. Comparing them on my player (std. CD player) I can't hear a massive difference - maybe the SACD is slightly sharper in the odd place and maybe its got a very slight more of a processed sound whereas my original CD has more of an analogue sound. That's all I can really say. The equipment that I used for the listening comparison is listed below
    It isn't necessarily about doing things right, its also about doing the right thing !!!

    I agree - all this navel gazing concerning the various versions and formats of DSOTM is to my mind somewhat irrelevant. As you say it all largely depends on the equipment used.
