Another good purchase if you have a lot of discs of any sort (CDs,
DVDs, Etc.) is one of those 'Disc Doctor' gimmicks. I had a 'loose'
disc on one of my TV box sets, I believe it was Babylon 5 season 1.
Problem was it was like disc 5 or 6 so it took me a few months to get
to it. I didn't notice any damage when I first got it (i simply put it
back in the case) but upon a close inspection there was a slight
scratch.. you'd think no biggy, but it was enough to glitch up my DVD
pretty bad.

Anyway, instead of trying to exchange a DVD i had bought 4 months
previous and had no reciept for, i got a disc doctor and that fixed it.
It's also saved quite a few of my audio CDs that have gotten scratched
up over the years.
