    Seems dangerous to me...I mean, touch a high rotation disk. And without mention that a poorly construct disk could shatter without any particular reason. #quackiecdplayer

    @SewerShark: LOOK BEHIND YOU, A THREE HEADED MONKEY!!!:

    modern cd's don't shatter easily. in the early days the plastic was more brittle, but it's been pretty flexible for a decade or longer.
    as for high rotation, cds spin at 500rpms. that's 6.25 fps at the edge. which isn't enough to do any real damage. also they're essentially torqueless, and would likely stop very quickly upon contact with the edge.

    Im more worried about damaging the CD from contact with it at such a high speed rotation. o_o

    And now for the spectacular…
