I need help

I was in Fry's yesterday and while walking through the music aisle when I spotted one of Zebrahead's cd's. I quickly grabbed it and threw it in my basket. I couldn't wait to get home and listen to it since I lost my first copy of it a few years ago. I realized I bought a super audio cd when after I opened up the package when I got home.

Have you actually tried it?

A lot of the SACD's out there are actually hybrid cd's. Where on one layer its just the normal cd, and then another layer has specific SACD stuff.

and I mean try it in terms of just a plain old cd player.

If it plays on a regular cd player then you likely have to upgrade the firmware of your dvd/cdrw/whatever

I tried it in my PC and my stereo(shelf system). Niether of them could read it.

It's likely a single layer SACD then.

Which is a bummer because your computer can't play it.

Are you still having that problem!?
Maybe you can do an "Explore" on it, and drill down to the music files?

If not, you can bring it to me at work and I'll figure it out or something? :)

I put the cd in the drive and got nothing. Couldn't read it at all.

As for the Explore thing. I don't know what you are talking about. lol.

I would love it if you could check it out. Do you or anybody you know have a SACD player? I am willing to give it to a good home if I can't use it. I would rather pass on a great band than look at it here.

Are you going to be in R1 any time soon? :)
I can figure it out for ya!
