VinylDisc from Germany
Posted on Oct 16, 07 08:53 AM PDT
Trust the Germans to come up with something like the VinylDisc. This audio format features a CD on one side and a vinyl on the other, building a bridge between both analog and digital audio on a single format. British group Fightstar will take the honor of releasing the first record on the VinylDisc format. Developed by Optimal Media Production, the limited edition single by Fightstar will come with one track on each side, and only 3,000 copies have been manufactured, retailing for $6 a pop. Any idea whether anyone would want to adopt this format? The vinyl side doesn't really do much since it can only hold 3 minutes' worth of audio, and will probably be more of a gimmick than anything else.

What a great promotional device for hip-hop artists and any dj. I've heard one being played on a turntable and it was pretty impressive.

That's right Joel. The first VinylDisk aka Squoodge-DVT was published in January 2007. Therefore the honor doesn't belong to the British group Fightstar.
