Machina Dynamica New Dark Matter CD and Blu Ray tray treatment?

This is a set of adhesive-backed thin plastic pieces that one attaches to one’s transport or player disc tray. The disk rests on them during non-spin mode, but presumably don’t touch the applied thin pieces during playback mode. The company says the new Dark Matter pieces reduces background scattered light from reaching the photodetector, thereby improving performance. 

Anyone tried this product? Please specify transport or player if you have and your impressions.

Folks, enjoy the thread for as long as it lasts. I’ve gotten my Q’s addressed, including some snarky replies from the manufacturer.

For top loaders: If you don’t have enough clearance for the 1/32” NDM between the data side of the CD and the transport surface above which the disc is spinning there’s something wrong with your CD player. Furthermore, even if there isn’t enough clearance, which I doubt, the NDM will be effective ANYWHERE inside the CD transport compartment since the scattered light is filling up the entire space inside the compartment, lighting it up like a Christmas tree. NDM is not limited to the gap between the disc and the transport.
