From "What Hi-Fi?" magazine.
Victor's plan to turn CDs into high resolution threatens the entire HD music industry http://www.whathifi.com/blog/victors-plan-...-music-industry by Andrew Everard Interesting – or rather worrying – news out of Japan that Victor Entertainment, the music division of JVC has developed a way to convert CD-quality recordings so they can be sold as HD music. -------------------- Kevin

Perhaps they're introducing fake hi-res, knowing that it will be shouted down, and hoping that this will increase the demand for true hi-res.

QUOTE (bandpass @ Dec 10 2012, 04:30)  Perhaps they're introducing fake hi-res, knowing that it will be shouted down, and hoping that this will increase the demand for true hi-res. That smells like an expensive gambit in what has become a rather low profit business. And even if they were trying to poison the well in order to drive water seekers towards a different one, does Victor even have a stake in "true hi-res"?
