There's really nothing wrong with leaving the CD in the player over-
night.  I think what they mean is don't leave it lying about loose
on the floor or something like that.  The point is that even though
the disc can be cleaned, and minor scratches polished out of it (yes,
toothpaste works - I've done it), you don't want to have to do this
if it is avoidable.

Bottom line:  Put your CDs back in the jewel boxes, *then* leave
them lying about on the floor.  :-)
