Well, the actual grooves in the vinyl does get shorter the closer you
are to the center of the record, but since the rotation speed of the
record is the same (i.e. it always takes the same amount of time to
get to the starting point of a groove), the length of the music is the
same no matter where on the record a groove is located. 

But that may be what Sebastian was saying. Just wanted to make it
clear.
