Thread: Disc reading Issues

I've got a load of discs that have a few minor surface scratches and neither of my drives will let me extract the majority of the files contained on them. I don't think they're the best CD's money can buy but i have more heavily scratched media which the drives read no problem.

I have tried using ISOBuster but without any success. Does anyone have any tips?

Thanks in advance...

Ive had a few problems ripping scratched CDs to flac but they rip alright as mp3s, other than using a CD cleaner the only thing i can think of is to stick em under the tap, works for me.

use a banana skin and buffer the back of the CD then wipe it down with a damp cloth
and dry it off

Be careful with the banana skin, someone might slip on it
