Seems like a good idea to go vice-versa.

The article is very brief but it compares the sound quality to vinyl. I wonder what the quality is actually like? Also, too bad they make no mention of cost.

Neat little device, surprisingly good sound, specially on glass. And has the bonus of projecting sound out of both sides of whatever you stick it to.

I doubt they are adaptable to constant micro vibrations.

Also, as for the similar approach, I was more keen of thinking of the Soundbug (http://news.cnet.com/2100-1040-860746.html) which may or may not also work.

pretty cool, I guess.. This would be useful, if the sound quality is high enough.
