Would the Original Masters recorded in PCM and was reissued in DSD better?
How DSD extracts the additional embedded information? If there's any?
Would 192Khz upsampling be similar in execution?
CD layer in the SACD disc recorded in DSD?
What about the upcoming BLUE RAY?
To many questions.....

Lets try to tackle your querries on the first one there is definitely a big difference in terms of sonic quality between the original PCM recording vis a vis the reissued DSD mainly because of the following reasons:
Here's what Tom Jung has to say on a recent interview, Lander
You first heard DSD very early on, at a by-invitation-only listening session at a Sony Music studio in New York City with three other recording engineers, Bob Ludwig, Bruce Swedien, and Michael Bishop from Telarc. tell us about it.
TOM JUNG
They had a jazz quartet setup on the studio, and David Smith, who is Sony's technical guru, had built a passive four-way switch that would allow us to listen to and switch between the live output of the mixing desk,conventional 16 bit digital, the latest and greatest 20 bit converter, and finally to DSD. The DSD WAS SO MUCH CLOSER TO THE LIVE SIGNAL than either PCM converter that it was OBVIOUS this was a direction I really wanted to pursue.
Lander
Do you feel DSD solves the problems inherent in PCM?
TOM JUNG
It does. I'm finding after all these years that, when I listen to an SACD, especially things that I record, where before I'd probably only listen from a quality perspective and not really be able to get into the music that much, [now] I'll listen to the whole thing. It draws you in, much like ANALOG did, but without the ANALOG problems.
Therefore Upsampling the basic redbook cd to 192khz would also benefit the listener to a marked improvement in terms of sonic qualities. Now the CD layer on the Hybrid SACD is recorded in it's basic PCM allowing the disc to be enjoyed in any basic CD player. You also have the luxury of listening to the Hybrid SACD in either Stereo or multi-channel mode depending on what application may be available to you cool eh
Here are some of the latest on Blu-Ray for your perusal:
Dec 24, 2004 - JVC Develops Blu-ray/DVD Combo Disc Technology
Victor Company of Japan, Ltd. (JVC) today announced that it has developed the world's first Blu-ray/DVD combo disc technology, which opens the way for the emergence of video releases containing content in both Blu-ray and DVD formats on a single disc. The new combo disc, which has a total storage capacity of 33.5GB (25GB BD-ROM, 8.5GB DVD), uses a triple layer structure made possible by the development of a proprietary high-performance reflective film that reflects the blue laser used for Blu-ray, but is transparent to the red laser used for DVDs. JVC will forward a proposal to the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) to have the technology accepted as a specification for future commercialization. The company is also working on a Blu-ray/DVD combo disc with an even larger 58.5GB (50GB BD-ROM, 8.5GB DVD) storage capacity.

Hope this helps

I do hope there are more people to carry the torch for the much improved digital formats, for the simple reason that with a small market base we'll have fewer titles to chose from. At this point we may have CDs for a much longer time than we would like much like flying in a 40 year old 747, when tech could have given us supersonic widebodies 20 years ago.

Thanks!
SoFtCliPpEr,
Thanks!
Next question.
Have you noticed and compared the 2-channel over the Multichannel?
EX. Carol Kidd - Nice Work
Ray Brown Trio - Live at LOA
Aaron Neville - Nature boy
What do you think? Not the same, isn't it.
I tried and never like the MULTICHANNEL!
BTW, My current favorite DSD recordings
Antiphone Blues ( Arne Domnerus Gustav Sjokvist)
Autumn in Seattle( Tsuyoshi Yamamoto,Ken Kaneko,
Toshio Osumi)
A Song for You Karen ( Jeremy Monterio, Eric Sneider,
Paul Martin, Tim Davis & SG Jacintha)
One thing good about DSD is SEPERATION OF INSTRUMENTS IN SPACE.
You can differentiate individual notes.
