Last weekend, KBCO in Boulder, CO did an all compact disk format.
While listening to one selection, it suddenly sounded as if it
were skipping!  You know... as with a vinyl album... it gets
stuck and keeps repeating itself.  After a minute, the DJ cut
off the song and said that he guessed we witnessed the first
skipping on a CD!  My question:  How is this possible!
Isn't it likely this is a mechanical problem?  What part of
a CD player is mechanical?  Does this signify a questionable
player?  (I may call KBCO to see what CD players they were using.)
