3:33Now PlayingPeter Macann reports on the latest innovation in digital hi fi technology. A system has been developed that enables the CD player's laser head to accurately read information from a compact disc even when the player is subjected to vibration - technology that means that a CD player can finally be portable.
Peter gleefully tests out the new system by taking a spin around the studio in a car fitted with its own compact disc player.
