I remember audio tape players that were like that. I could see one issue
with MD though with such a design. What if by chance the portion of the
disc that extended outward from the player was bumped hard enough to flex it
sufficiently that it caused problems while recording or playback, or even
snapped the casing? Or if the disc is yanked out while in operation?
I'm sure the design's possible but it introduces too many problems to be
practical.
