Well this would be very interesting indeed - perhaps the standard laser
heats the areas of the layers and changes the reflective characteristic?
Also there is the issue of conforming to redbook specs etc so that
any CD player could play it.
On another note, I notice this "effect" is a characteristc of IDM music.
You fell you're familiar with something and then another melody,
break, stucture etc. seems to materialize out of thin air. Though I
couldn't honestly say that whole empty areas have produced sounds (that
weren't echoes in my head).
I wonder if I'm not getting half the music with my unencrypted itunes
purchases?
