Ok, so a buddy and me played the same song in two different CD players (we 
hit the play button at the same time). . .but we where not perfect. My CD 
was ahead of his by a few seconds.  Now, get this. . .by the end of the 
song, his not only caught up. . but surpassed my by few seconds.  I 
thought it had to do with processing speed. . He thought it had to do with 
the speed the CD was spinning.  However, neither of those conclusions make 
any sense to me.
