    Next up: cutting your vinyl records into concentric circles, so you won't have to carry the weight of the songs you don't like!

      The word concentric reminded me of sort of an inverse idea in vinyl. Equally cool IMO: concentric grooves. Rush did it. Kate Bush did it. Probably more recent examples. It works like this: drop the needle at a different starting point and the whole record plays through a different groove. Cool, eh?
