Submission + - The CD turns 25 today

netbuzz writes: "Seems like only yesterday to those of us of a certain age. Philips, maker of the first CD on Aug. 17, 1982, estimates that more than 200 billion have been sold since. The younger set might have trouble appreciating the difference in auditory quality that the compact disc represented over vinyl (some have probably never even seen a record). And all but true trivia buffs will have trouble coming up with the name of the artist on that first disc. ... Blame Philips for any earworms.
