Well, I have used tooth paste on a swab, it works fine if the scratches aren't too deep (clean the cd before using it, your cd player will thank you for it).

you can buy a cd cleaning kit. it's not those big machine ones it's in a cd case and it just has cleaning stuff in it and cloths. my freind had one and i think she got it at target.

CDs are easily scratched and then Windows cannot read them and retrieve the data; if this is the problem you have, then you can use a CD data recovery tool called CDRoller which has a very good success rate\nhttp://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/CDRoller/cdroller.html\nnot cheap but it does have a free trial\n\ntips: use the best quality cd-rs you can afford; make several copies and keep them safe; back up to an external usb hard drive; store your pics online with Flickr etc

There are products on the market that will clean cd's, unsure of what they cost though.  Another alternative is to 'rip' the cd to your computer and write it to a new disk, depending on how bad it is it may help with skip errors.

if its a rewritable cd, try to erase it first. although the best quality cd's for music would be a cd-r.

Sometimes during the MP3 compression process, small rodents get into the bit stream.  When this happens, you get a sort of squeaky noise.  Most often the rodent is a chipmunk but sometimes you'll hear a squirrel or a rat squeak during playback.  If this happens, simply repeat the compression process.  OK, that's not true, scratches on the CD are most likely the cause or bad compression software.  Or mabye it's not.  How do I know?  I'm just one person.

find a vinyl player with a headphone port. Then, get a headphone to headphone cord. Plug one end into the phonograph player, and one into your computer. Download audacity, and back up your vinyls to CDs. Then they'll store better :D. If you're not willing to do that... i suggest somewhere where they won't be messed with and not get scratched... or melted... hehehe

Believe it or not, I've repaired scratched discs with plain white toothpaste. Just dab a small amount on the disc and buff into the disc with a soft cloth. Sounds crazy- I know, but somehow it works. Try it on a cd you're not afraid of ruining first, until you get the hang of it.

The above answers are good, but they left out the most important part! Your cleaning strokes MUST go from the center of the disk straight out to the outside edge.\n\nNever clean going round-and-round!\n\nThe reason is that the CD contains error-correction code that will allow it to recover from a few errors, but if in your cleaning you leave (or create) a scratch that closely overlays the circular CD track, then there will be too much lost information for the CD player to recover.\n\nWhy start from the center? Because that's where the tracks start, so if you end up leaving a little gunk on the CD, it's better that the mess end up on the outer edge, where there's probably no data (unless you're cleaning a full 72 minute disc, and there aren't many of those).

Naw, never heard of them, but I'd like to. If you would, post a link if they have a website. The name is pretty b!itchin', all in itself.

There isn't any software that you can use as it is a physical problem.  Go to your local DVD/CD store - they will sell you plenty of products to  revive disks.\n\nAlso, if you GOOGLE for "repair scratched DVD" you will get plenty 'home' remedies for this.\n\nHave fun
