SACD is not dead. It is however a niche format. There are plenty of new releases - majority of which is classical music. High definition format such as SACD really only benefits quality recordings of music with high dynamic range such as classical and jazz. Likewise, there are SACD players that are still maufactured - most notably the Sony's PlayStation 3 (some models only) and also various models from Marantz and Denon as well as cheaper Oppo. DVD-A does appear to be dead to my knowledge.
SACD is an abbreviation of Super Audio CD by Sony and Philips. DVD density 5+1 channel audio recording. Used mostly for audiophile Jazz and Classics recordings.
