For decades, any recording you bought had a side "A" and a side "B." Once you finished listening to side "A," you got up, physically turned over the record and listened to side "B." When CDs came out in late 1982, it seems miraculous that you didn’t have to turn it over after twenty minutes.
Well, welcome back to the future. A London-based Japanese designer named Yuri Suzuki thinks he’s found a solution for people who want the richness of vinyl combined with the convenience of the compact disc. It’s a hybrid, five inches across, with digital material on once side and vinyl grooves on the other. One side plays in a CD player, the other needs a turntable.
It’s kinda cool in a dual-retro way–but will it catch on? Somehow, I doubt it.
