Supposedly. many of the discs are hybrids, which can be played in CD players or SACD/DVD players in 5.1 surround.

Improved quality is supposed to be one of their perks, but you need an SACD or DVD player to hear the diff.

Increased cost? That I'm not sure on. The Rolling Stones SACDs are about normal price, as is The Who: Tommy. Well, it's normal for a 2CD set (24-30 bucks US)
