This is how fast a typical LaserDisc player, in this case a Pioneer CLD-59, can spin up an 8 inch LaserDisc to 1800 RPM.
And, if you think that's fast, then you need to see just how fast the same player can spin up a CDV (CD Video) up to 2250 RPM.
Please note: CD Video is not to be confused with Video CD. CD-Video contains about 5 minutes of LaserVision video (which is analogue) that's playable on a CDV-capable LaserDisc player along with 20 minutes of Compact Disc audio that can be played on a conventional CD player. Video CD is a digital format that contains up to 70 minutes of MPEG-1 video.
