Who would have imagined that this "state-of-the-art" technology would be used to scare birds in plantations 20 years later. hehe

Someone should go around and show people Compact Cassette and tell them it's the latest in new high tech Analog technology.

adults then did not know what this was because it was not out yet, kids today do not know what this is because it is obsolete. anyone else feel old?

@peckishere A scratch on the label side is more likely to damage the substrate layer effecting the actual disc, however, I have a Windows XP Pro install disc that has severe scratch damage, I have to replace it I feel

@WULFY1993 I have a used $6 RCA linear tracking turntable, and it plays great, you have to worry about grounding the inputs or you get hum, and I suffered that while recording LP to MD AKA MiniDisc, which is ATRAC digital, and also a disc format, notice the PSP game system looks very similar to MD technology

@polmas It's a great Frisbee if nothing else. They make nice shiny clocks too, or coasters

The answer in the USA here from my personal memory is CLASSICAL MUSIC at $16 or higher PER disc cost, and of course, you CANNOT record, so the main attributes are wear and tear, random access, and size, versus LP, but perhaps not cassettes, which were rather popular. I am not entirely sure on prices, but I recall $16 to $20 USD I believe is accurate, the first DVD players were $600USD and I think CD was very similar, at least $300 opening costs to consumers
