Spinning at a listening station

As for the kids, they can try out the latest electronic games or simply tap their feet to the beat of the latest CD
spinning at a listening station.

Can you say the bloded part in a different way? I don't quite get it. What is a listening station?

Thanks!

Listening stations are audio devices in music stores that allow you to listen to a CD before purchasing it. It's the "try before you buy" approach. It seems the advertisement wanted to sound "cool" and "hip" for the kids, so they used "spinning" as teen slang that our youth uses on a regular basis.
