A CD player which, when the CD has finished and until you press Eject, plays a short looped mp3 of the sound a record's run-out groove makes.

Also available: the mp3 player which plays the noise of a CD drawer closing/opening at the beginning/end of every ripped CD.

       Can it read the manufacturing date of the CD and make the run-out groove sound scratchier if it's an older disc ?

       half an hour after the end of one of Robbie Williams' albums finishes, he starts yattering away about his ex-classteacher, spooky stuff!

       The Sergeant Pepper LP has some weird sound in its run-out groove, which I never got to hear because our phonograph lifted up the needle automatically.   

       (At the beginning of the CD it should play that nice little “pop, thump” sound of the needle landing on the vinyl.)

       Thought sure this was another Amishman35 or some such contribution.   

       I confess I totally miss the attraction of these sorts of retro-techno ideas.   

       The Sgt. Pepper CD plays the inner groove track over and over again about 30 times with a slow fade, extremely annoying. At least it was only on the vinyl version once (about 3 seconds long).
