Glass CD's ???

Posted by rkw (A) on February 17, 2008 at 13:03:58

I came across a trip report about classical CD shopping in Japan (worthwhile reading!) that included these comments:

Think the high-end with its mega bucks equipment & accessories are excessively expensive? Try Glass CDs. Presumably like glass masters these discs are made of glass. Prices range from 25000 to 35000 Yen. (yes @250-350 USD) I had to look twice when seeing the extra zero! There was a van Zweden Exton Bruckner disc & the von K first DG Beethoven 9th on display. No idea of what they sounded like.
