Someone needs to invent

How do you figure "they would make a killing!!!"? Seems that if you don't make them scratch proof you would make as much or more because people need to replace the scratched ones.Originally posted by BuddyLee
Someone needs to invent cds that wont scratch!!! they would make a killing!!! now no one steal my idea im getting it patented as we speak
Besides, I think the next concept to catch on will be the flash packs where you download your music into a transportable memory unit.
Or you could just get a CD burner, make a duplicate and store the original as a master copy.

This is an interesting idea.
I'm sure there's some sort of scratch proof polymer out there. Unfortunatly, being scratch proof probably makes it rather difficult to etch the music or data into the plastic.

nope
nope that was probably Chris.
Ken say you buy a CD and after awhile you get a few minor scratches in it that makes some of your favorite songs skip. would you want to go out and replace most of your CDs all over again for 10-20 bucks a piece?? i think id rather pay a few dollars more for a scratch proof cd
nope that was probably Chris.

Re: nope
Maybe if you weren't so careless with them you wouldn't get them all scratched up. This isn't a new issue, you should have seen how careful we had to be back when all we had were LPs and 45s. Take care of your stuff and it survives.
Read it again Slick. I said why would they want to make them scratch proof as they can get you to purchase them again once they are scratched, making more bucks for them and the artist. I also offered the solution of buying a burner, creating a duplicate and saving the original as a master so you can copy it again if needed.Originally posted by BuddyLee

Re: Re: nope
Again if they made a CD like i proposed and charged a few more dollars they would still be making a profit. how many people do you know are going to go buy a CD 3 or 4 times in their lifetime. I do take care of my things, however scratches always seem to find their way somehow on my CDs. God only knows how they get their but they do. sounds like someone has an attitude problem

Sorry about that chief.
That is why I always make copies of the kids games before I give the CD to them. I ain't buying another copy of Dora, Scooby Doo, Pooh or whatever because they leave them lying around. DVDs are watched Verrrrrry carefully around my little 2 & 5 year old darlings & they ain't gettin a DVD player until they are old enough to take care of it.
Jlabsher,
That is the only way to go. Make a copy and store the original. Some people just don't get it and the prices for the gear has come way down. A Pioneer DVR-106 DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/+RW Writer DVR-106D With Nero Burning Software can be had for about $130 and the discs run about $35 bucks for a pack of 50.
A cheap investment when you consider the costs of games and music.

Re: lol
My collection of CDs won't have to be repurchased because I, like many others, understand that damage can occur when they are in the hands of children like yourself and have taken measures to cheaply and readily replace those that become unusable without having to buy them again. If you don't understand that then I would say that you are the one that is ignorant.
Is it that I know it all (which I have never claimed) or is it that you know so little (which you have regularly displayed)? And what is it that you claim that I am ignorant of?

Re: Re: lol
yes and i read your idea the last time. i just feel that mine is better. who knows my idea may be crap but this is how i see things.
i wasnt trying to make you sound ignorant until you made me sound so with your second post to this forum. i did nothing to harm you and you come off with such an attitude.
this is how i see it though. i would just like to go out and buy 1 cd that is scratch proof so that i would never have to go buy it again. instead of investing money into a cd burner or backup cds and all the other things you suggested i would rather pay a buck more for that cd. it would take more time to burn all the cds in your collection as well. just my thoughts dont bash me for them!
