I suspect the latter.  As I understand it, to take advantage of any 
benefits offered by DSD, you'd need an absolutely top class, studio 
quality mic-pre/input stage.  Neither of the korg MR DSD portable 
recorders have such.  Therefore it's kinda hard to see the point of the 
DSD here.

Plus there's not alot you can do with your file once you've recorded it.

(apart from converting it to PCM...)
