..for those of you unacquainted with Machina Dynamica, you're in for a real treat. Here's the link to the MD website:

..and a teaser from the site...a summary of how the INTELLIGENT CHIP works...Abbott and Costello couldn't have said it better ...
Summary
The Intelligent Chip works quantum mechanically via coherent quantum superposition and quantum entanglement. Two coherent light sources (the CD player laser and the quantum dots in the Intelligent Chip) interact with the atoms in the CD's polycarbonate layer to produce long-lasting, superior optical transparency for better optical signal to noise ratio during the laser-reading process. The active material in the Intelligent Chip is quantum dots - artifical atoms grown in the lab tuned to emit photons of a pre-determined wavelength.
In the case of the original Intelligent Chip, CD laser light escapes the player through a number of small holes and narrow gaps in the CD player case. The emitted photons from chip commingle with the CD laser light that is everywhere in the room and inside the player; the commingled light resonates with the CD's polycarbonate material, improving its optical performance. In the case of The Super Intelligent Chip, the process occurs entirely inside the CD player where all the interactions are more intense.
