Double-Sided CD

 Twice the music, half the hassle...

Is there a technical reason why this hasn't already been invented by someone? Surely it is possible and would be very practical to have both sides of a cd to be readable. Just like cassette tapes have 2 sides, a cd could too. The only problem I can think of is the ease of scratching one of the 2 surfaces, but still, with proper maintenance theres no reason it shouldn't work!

       If you get the South Park movie DVD, it has one screen size on one side and a different size on the other. I'll show you some time.
