I mean technically it's kind of like a laser record haha
Even more so when you realize they aren't even digital, they use analog NTSC, PAL signal modulation / encoding.
Wait, they do? I always assumed they were digital..
Edit: well damn yeah they're just shiny records.. from Wikipedia "The surface of the disc is covered with small holes that are read by a laser."
