[net.audio] Undestroying CD's - the not so sordid after all story

Surprisingly, I finally got around to hooking up my CDP-101 player
again after the A-B CD2 test. It was not used in the test, but I had
taken it along. I got out my scratched CD's and rubbed them with a finger
as some genius advised here on the net. One plays right thru with nary
a glitch. The other simply tics a bit as it goes thru the worst of the
scratch. I now have a CD that simulates a record for a few seconds
at least.
This could be the result of the finger rub or machine to machine
variation between players. Anywhich, it leaves me feeling much better.
One of them was my jet fly thru the living room 6 ft off the floor
disc and I didn't want to hurt that.
