Super High Material CD

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article reads like an advertisment for a CD pressing plant. Specifically, in makes the following highly contentious terms: "…allows more precise physical representation of stored bits…" "…potentially better sound quality"

I don't know, but bits are bits, and the vast majority of CDs in my thoroughly non-SHM collection reads without error even using burst mode in EAC, which puts into doubt the above claims that something even needs to be improved. ï¿½ (talk) 07:45, 22 July 2018 (UTC)

SHM-CDs have not been a great commercial success since they were launched, and they do seem to be only made by one company rather than multiple. Maybe the article could be merged into CD. A similar article is Gold compact disc which gives a different set of advantages over standard CDs.
