I don't know why people have no respect for material they can borrow freely at a library, but any cd two months or older is usually scratched pretty bad at my local library. Sometimes, so bad I can't play them without skipping on my standalone sony single disk cd player.
So whats the best way to remove scratches from library cd's? since its plastic can I just polish the cd with something? -------------------- "I have learned a lesson from the lessons I have learned"

Whatever is used to try and temporarily revive a CD just long enough to grab the problem tracks has to be gentle enough to elleviate the problems versus making the disc impossible to grab anything from.
I've read tons of f.a.q.s about how to repair a badly scratched CD with homemade remedies (not repair kits) - the "do-this-do" that craze, however in my situation they've always pretty much failed and/or made matters worse by actually destroying the disc. -------------------- Complexity of incoherent design.
