You can only play this when the moon is full and the temperature is +5.67 C

Coldplay's latest "CD product" comes with a very interesting description of how it should be played. (Thanks to Ville for the link.)

"In order for you to enjoy a high quality music experience, we have added this special technology."

Here is part of the list of what this fine product cannot be played in:


Some CD players that have the capability of burning into an MP3 (such as portable players or car stereos);
Some CD players that possess CD-R/RW functions (such as portable players or car stereos);
Some car stereos with satellite guidance system;
Some CD players or car stereos with hard disk recording capacity;
Some CD-R/RW recorders used for music
Some portable CD players;
Some DVD players;
Some CD/LD convertible players;
Some game Players.


Wouldn't it be easier to list the 2 or 3 miracles of modern technology that are in fact capable of playing this paragon of high quality music experience?
