Recording Engineer Develops Everlasting Glass CD

October 23rd 2006 | Multimedia

A Japanese recording engineer has developed the world’s first glass CD guaranteed not to warp, distort and of a beautiful design, according to its maker.

Music critics who have tried out the CD said that it’s outstanding and virtually like listening to a live performance.

But high quality music to last forever comes at a price — 98,700 yen [USD$830, EUR€660] apiece to be exact — as glass CDs have to be made by hand.

“I wanted to make a CD that could be passed on to grandchildren,” the glass CD’s inventor, Suenori Fukui, said.
