Amazon.com is now listing the Blu-ray version of the Moving Pictures 5.1 surround sound remix with a release date of May 3rd rather than April 5th, and has sent out notices to those who have already pre-ordered the package (thanks ReGorLaTroy). The DVD version is still listed as releasing on April 5th however, although it's still possible that it will also be delayed. Rush.com posted some more information regarding the remix a couple of weeks ago including the following details:

... Both DVD & Blu-ray formats will boast the 5.1 surround sound and stereo audio in 96kHz/24-bit high-resolution audiophile playback which offers 256 times more resolution than CD audio, providing the listener with the closest experience you can have to what the artists hear in the studio. The DVD is playable on both DVD-Audio and DVD-Video players, the latter players will include Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound and PCM stereo playback. Blu-ray discs will also feature DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround sound in addition to 96kHz/24-bit PCM 5.1 surround sound and stereo. ... Also included in the package is an extensive gallery with previously unreleased photos from the original recording sessions, new liner notes by renowned music journalist David Fricke and 30th anniversary artwork by original album designer Hugh Syme.
