Frustrated fans are experiencing playback issues with Lorde’s crystal clear Virgin CD, with many of them unable to play the disc on a variety of CD players. Discussions on Reddit and multiple TikTok posts feature annoyed fans experiencing compatibility problems with older models or in-car CD players, expressing their disappointment with the design choice and lack of alternative CD options. “Seems like older models with older sensors won’t play it,” a fan wrote. “Pretty disappointing, I know it was for an aesthetic but at least press it on normal CDs, too.” Lorde’s website shows only sold-out listings for the translucent CD, with no other CD pressing options currently available. A spokesperson for Lorde declined to comment on the issue, leaving frustrated fans hoping for a smoother listening experience with any potential future CD releases or deluxe editions. (Rolling Stone)
