Tracklisting & More Information

Platinum SHM-CD [Super High Material CD] is the ultimate compact disc utilizing platinum in place of the aluminium to form the reflective coating in addition to the proven SHM-CD technology, which features enhanced audio quality through the use of a special polycarbonate plastic. Using a process developed by JVC and Universal Music Japan discovered through the joint companies' research into LCD display manufacturing, SHM-CDs feature improved transparency on the data side of the disc, allowing for more accurate reading of CD data by the CD player laser head.

The label surface is printed a turquoise blue colour, this helps to absorb the unwanted pickup/stray light which is reflected by the playback machine.

Platinum SHM-CD is fully compatible with standard CD players. However, it will not play on CD players that are not compatible with CD-R (Compact Disc-Recordable) discs.
