Well??? Hows about it?
Where is the annalysis of PCM?
What is the sample rate?  Is it the same as for CD?
Differences between BETA II and BETA III PCM recordings?
             
Can any brand of video machine be used with a PCM adapter?
Can a VHS machine be used with the PCM processor?
   (or must you use the SONY SL2000 [only]?)
Signal to noise?
Dynamic range?
Percentage of signal loss compared to source signal?
Grain?
Nakamichi vs Sony vs Sony ... which one is better and why?
What are its problems (all recording mediums/methods have problems
                       just like all records are warped and all
                       measurements are approximate)
How robust is it?
 
(and CD's still ring)
