Know those records that you insert into a vinyl record player? Basically those, but pirated since a real one costs money when you purchase them at official music retailers. It involves the process of obtaining a legal copy then using wax molds (to recreate a record) and specialized tools (prevent quality loss) duplicating the record. (Also, "Bone Music" existed in the Soviet Union by printing music by using x-ray films).

Were you also one of the people that thought the McDonalds 1/3 pounder is smaller than the 1/4 pounder because 3 is smaller than 4?

no I'm one of those who've heard of 1000th-scale and was genuinely wondering wether or not you meant 1000x1micrometer or 1000 parts of a micrometer.

or 1000 parts of a micrometer.

One over thousand is a thousandth, if that is what you mean
