I just had one of those moments where I caught a glimpse of the depth of my ignorance. Not good, need more coffee. What sort of motors do CD players use? Yes, I've seen them and they be metal and electric, but upon what principle do they operate? Are they steppers, synchronous etc. I know virtually nothing about electrical machinery and thought it was good that I didn't have to take the class, now I'm not so sure. I know they constantly change their speed to keep the mean data rate constant so I suppose they could even be DC motors relying on the feedback loop.
Dispel the darkness oh master tweaker...
