CDs are NEVER A WASTE OF MOMEY!

You can mould Vinyls in you submerse them in hot water-if the grooves are still there, maybe submersing the record in hot water, and then pressing it with a large book or something might work.Furiey said:If you have a CD writer you can copy them off your hard drive and back to a CD, just keep those original CDs even though you can't play them.
At least you have a copy on your hard drive, I knew someone who bought a whole load of records (vinyl) and put them in the back seat of his car to drive home. Unfortunately it was hot and they all melted into a completely useless L shape to match the back and seat of the car seat. The shop wouldn't take them back as they said he had mistreated them. He had them in his room for ages as he couldn't bring himself to throw them away having spent so much on them. In the end he put the album sleeves on his wall and used some of the centre bits that weren't bent as coasters.
Chukchi Husky said:I had 24 CDs. I stored them in a large case that can hold up to 60. A bit of sand got into the case and damaged 11 of my CDs (putting little holes into them). I guess it's what I get for wasting my money.
I don't know.Bozo Erectus said:I have to know, I'll bite: how did sand get into the case if you never took it to the beach?
They make it worse.Perfection said:I wonder of those CD scratch removers would help?
He did try and flatten them out but they were just too badly warped. I doubt whether he still has them now, this was nearly 20 years ago.nonconformist said:You can mould Vinyls in you submerse them in hot water-if the grooves are still there, maybe submersing the record in hot water, and then pressing it with a large book or something might work.
If not, they can use the same method to make a vase or something![]()
Huh? How do you get holes in a CD? They are plastic and reasonably thick. There is no way that sand would make a hole through a CD. Sand could scratch them though.Chukchi Husky said:I checked my CDs again. Two more of them have holes.
that slow guy from "The Ringer" said:SCRATCH!!!SCRATCH!!!
If the sand is on the music side of the CD, it would scratch the surface. If it is on the lable side, it would have no effect worth mentioning. I do not see how grains of sand can make a hole through a CD. Or am I missing something here?Chukchi Husky said:If there's a grain of sand in a CD wallet, and there's a CD in it, whenever the CD moves, the grain of sand makes holes in the CD.
If it goes too deep on the label side, it can chip off the data.Birdjaguar said:If it is on the lable side, it would have no effect worth mentioning.
There is no gap between the CD and the case.Birdjaguar said:I do not see how grains of sand can make a hole through a CD. Or am I missing something here?
That really depends on the band/artist that is recorded on the cd. I for one doesn't think Maria Carreys cd's are worth the plastic they are made ofComradeDavo said:CDs are NEVER A WASTE OF MOMEY!![]()
