Comment on How is it possible that a laptop can read a CD flawlessly, but every other device I've tried the CD on skips at certain parts?

The issue with CDs isn’t the compression.

CDs are getting read at a rate of 44000 times a second. Sometimes this frequency will cancel out the Digital information on the CD under circumstances that can’t be stopped. The better the correction of this naturally occurring error, the more natural the CD sounds.

That’s a pretty bad explanation, but that’s the main reason CDs can sound way different to the LP.
