But I really know next to nothing about any of this; if someone can confirm, that'd be great, then I can focus solely on DVD-A.
I think its more or less a copy protection issue that would also apply to DVD-A. I don't think the players allow digital output of either SACD or DVD-A so you can't make digital copies. If you can find any Receivers that accept these formats that might hint at the answer.
