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.

Does this work on SSD and streaming systems? If not, the future for this product is truly dark. Almost black.

Glupson,

I wouldn’t worry about it.

Geoff may be a little behind the times with his magic but seems to be fine with that.

Someone said on a blog that red visible and IR wavelength light could be absorbed by vanadium dioxide impregnated films. Exposed camera film might work, as claimed by some.
