Download or read book Origins and Successors of the Compact Disc written by J.B.H. Peek and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In March 1979, a prototype of a ‘Compact Disc (CD) digital audio system’ was publicly presented and demonstrated to an audience of about 300 journalists at Philips in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. This milestone effectively marked the beginning of the digital entertainment era. In the years to follow, the CD-audio system became an astonishing worldwide success, and was followed by successful derivatives such as CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD, and recently Blu-ray Disc. Today, around the thirtieth anniversary of the milestone, it is taken for granted that media content is stored and distributed digitally, and the analog era seems long gone. This book retraces the origins of the CD system and the subsequent evolution of digital optical storage, with a focus on the contributions of Philips to this field. The book contains perspectives on the history and evolution of optical storage, along with reproductions of key technical contributions of Philips to the field.

Download or read book Compact Disc written by Robert Barry and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. The story of the compact disc is also the story of the end of physical media. It is the story of how the quest for perfection laid the grounds for the death of a great industry. For in the passage from analogue media, like records and tapes, to digital formats, like CDs, something changed in the nature of media and in the relationship we have with music. Music became code, a sequence of 1s and 0s, a flow of pure information. The material structure of the medium itself was always supposed to disappear. But the physical has proved to possess an uncanny knack for returning. Today the CD is a zombie medium, still popular amongst certain avant-garde record labels and Japanese consumers. Against all the odds, the spectre endures. Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

The Minidisc explains the new technology clearly and succinctly so that even non-technical people can learn enough to enable them to understand what the MiniDisc is all about. Since the MiniDisc includes several innovative features, the book relates MD to its predecessors - CD, CD-ROM, CD-WO etc. - and, starting from that perspective, introduces and expalins each new technology included in it. Psycho-acoustics are covered, as are the technologies relating to existing digital audio electronics and data processing and storage, including the compression and decompression methods which are vital to this new format. Written by members of the Sony Service Centre (Europe) team - the same team who wrote Digital Audio and Compact Disc Technology.
