Glass CD

The world’s first glass CD is guarantee not to warp and distort.
A Japanese recording engineer “Suenori Fukui”, 60, has developed the world’s first glass CD. Music critics who have tried out the CD said that it’s outstanding and virtually like listening to a live performance.However the Glass CD is 98,700 yen a piece and have to be made by hand. It start from that Fukui wanted to make a CD that could be passed on to grandchildren.
Glass CD is a great receptor of sound while existing plastic CDs are not completely transparent and information on them cannot be read perfectly. They are susceptible to bending or warping if left in sunlight or humid areas, which leads to sound distortion.
As glass CDs are completely transparent, information on them can be read perfectly, improving sound quality. They are not affected by heat or humidity and remain in perfect condition forever.
