Sony Blu-spec CD Format Detailed, Hits Stores

CNETNate writes "More details about Sony's new Blu-spec CD format — standard CDs authored using Blu-ray's blue diode technology — are beginning to emerge, with commercial releases beginning to hit Amazon. Blu-spec CDs are compatible with existing CD players but have been mastered with higher levels of accuracy by using the same technology used to author Blu-ray discs, with the intention of eliminating reading errors that occur as a result of being authored with traditional red laser technology. Sony has also launched an official (Japanese) site for Blu-spec CDs."

    Do I get a free pony in every jewel case?

    Do I need to make sure I use Blu spec cables to my speakers too, with copper rolled in the correct direction?

    Audiophiles realy are the some of the most religious suckers on the planet. If I could only think of this crap first and profit from it!
