[QUOTE="rfq, post: 409339, member: 15523"] The format has been dead for more than a decade. Yet, they're still fitting CD players in cars, new ones. Some people still want them... there's demand overseas for them too. Its the same argument for people who want turntables and vinyl. The primary motivation is to discover what they're hiding, how it works.. and why. I always wanted to know how it works, and with some of the knowledge I already have, other doors are opening, I have a great understanding now of hard disk drives. In short, a very interesting piece of equipment, with servos locked onto reading digital bitstreams from media. PC hard disks are even more elegant in that they have dedicated control tracks, and this explains why if the media suffers an "incident" the drives clicks... because it cannot find its control track. In terms of network streaming, that's something I've done before. [/QUOTE]
