Like A Virgin Japanese Reissue

Great news from Japan for collectors! The “Like A Virgin” album will be re-issued in Japan on the new and improved CD format SHM-CD.
The release date is announced for December 10th 2008 with the catalogue number WPCR13274

SHM-CD (Super High Material CD) is an improved version of the CD material that uses super quality, enhanced transparency polycarbonate material developed for use in LCD screens. It plays in any CD player. Universal Music Japan & JVC co-developed the SHM-CD. They report that the new material allows the pits to be formed more precisely plus eliminates laser splatter. The signal characteristics are improved as a result with overall lower distortion and better musicality.
