I've got quite a few operas on SD DVD, many of which appear to have been recorded originally in HD (or at least 16:9, if not real HD). I know the Met has started recording their performances in HD (though their releases so far have been on SD DVD) but, being on Deutsche Grammophon (distributed by Universal), it's unlikely we'll see these on BD very soon (though there's hope!). Opus Arte, TDK, EMI, and Euroarts are some of the other labels recording opera in HD, though none has issued any on HD media so far, except for the Opus Arte HD DVD of ' The Magic Flute', with 'Die Fledermaus' to follow. I'll be excited to see what they'll be releasing on BD!
