Sony develops new audio CD format

The internet has been buzzing lately with stories of Sony's announcement in Japan that it is launching a new audio CD format - the Blu-spec CD. Apparently the format uses Blu-ray laser diodes and advanced polymers in order to improve on the standard CD format (reduction of jitter) while operating within the format parameters.

According to one report: "A roughly translated Japanese press release about the new technology claims the new CD cutting machines 'eliminate vibration', thus improving the quality of the laser beam and bringing sound quality closer to that of the master tape".

Apparently Sony Music Entertainment has announced plans to release 60 titles of classical music, jazz and other genres in the new format for 2,500 yen (715 yen more than a conventional CD). The first releases will be ready for launch in the Japanese market on Christmas Eve, including albums from Miles Davis and ELO. There is no indication of when or if the technology will be released in Europe.
