Just stumbled across an announcement from a few days back that Sony is pushing a new CD standard called "Blu-spec CD". The articles I've found on this seem a little confused with many suggesting it's a new format, but as far as I can tell they're simply manufacturing Redbook compliant CDs to higher tolerances.
Here's some of the more informative links I found.

This could reduce the possibility of disc read errors maybe, and I can't really see any way in which it could be considered bad in any sense. I just wonder if there's much benefit to make it worth going to the trouble, and how much effect it will actually have on jitter as that appears to be an area they expect improvements. Of course it could just be another flash-in-the-pan standard with little content support ala Superbit DVDs.
