Romy says "I have his 8 symphony with Métropolitain and it is at time very stimulating. Now I wonder, the symphonies 4 and 6 that Atma Classique offer as 24Bit download, are they the dabs of master files of juts up streamed CDs?"

Well there is no honor among thiev ... uh music companies. As you are well aware, Sony and others regularly market SACDs which are merely resampled CD files. Vinyl reissues often use a CD file as the source, more rarely a higher rate file. If they don't state what they are doing assume they are doing the easiest (worst) thing. A few SACD music labels do specify a pure DSD path but the vast majority don't. Pristine Audio provides "high rate" PCM download files of Wagner sourced from a needledrop. And so the story goes ....
