    Another reason that they stopped making the smaller CDs was that a lot of CD players (including ones in the iMac and laptop computers) started using slot loading for the CDs and these usually wouldn't take the small CDs. I have a limited edition small square CD (Doctor Who - Variations on a Theme). That would look cool spinning around in that player.

    I have an old trick that might help with the "sensitivity to bumps" problem. When you turn it off and store it, place it face down. I used to repair CD players and noticed the flexible white carriage that held the lens would sometimes start to sag under the effect of gravity. Storing it upside down when not in use would sometimes use gravity to pull the carriage back and relieve some of the sagging. The sagging would cause the focusing coils to work harder.

    To me, this just looks like a great way to scratch or snap your CDs. I guess it could’ve been kinda stylish as a home CD player if you couldn’t afford a full-blown stereo...

    This is what I love about old tech. The creative ways they found to solve problems. Instead of stopping at the idea of a device the size of a CD, they went further and made it smaller for small CD's. but instead of stopping there thought "what if we make it compatible to normals CD's" and found THIS solution. Its fucking genius. Generally, with almost all old tech, I love finding out the creative ways of making things work, by simply thinking outside a box no one knew existed.

    Back sometime in the 1980s, Sony came out with a Walkman cassette player that was smaller than the cassette (it was after the WM-10). A two-page magazine ad showed a photo of the cassette case for Simon & Garfunkel's Greatest Hits on the left page with the headline, "Sony invent the world's smallest personal hi-fi." On the right page was a photo of a hand taking the case away to reveal the Walkman, with the headline, "Sorry, the cassette was in the way." I wonder which one it was? 🙂
