VinylDisc hybrid plays on turntables or optical drives - Boing Boing: "German manufacturers Optimal Media Production claim that their new VinylDisc is a hybrid CD/vinyl album that will play in an optical drive or on a turntable: 'The VinylDisc is a combination audio CD and special record. It consists of two attached layers. The silver layer contains digital audio information, while the black upper layer can be played on every record player.'"

This is the best of both worlds! I can finally pull that old record player from the garage (see honey I told you there was a reason to keep it!). You can get the classic hiss and pops and flip it over to get the clear but somehow lacking digital fixed sound!
