I used to have Beethoven's Ninth on LP, where they always have to split the
third movement, and got so used to it that I would jump if I heard the whole
thing without the split (on a radio broadcast). Then I got it on
Musicassette which split the movement in a different place, so I would jump
in two places.
This might be an urban legend but I heard that the inventor of the CD
was a big Beethoven fan, and one of the design criteria was that the
Ninth had to fit on one disc.
