I got mine for $4.99, and I bought a copy for a friend as well. What's
the big deal with having the disk in the drive, anyway? I'm setting up the wheel and pedals already to play the game, it's not that much extra effort to put the disk in. |

It's not the effort, it's wear and tear from swapping CD's. I take
really good care of my stuff and the disk is beginning to look its age. What will happen if the disk doesn't work anymore? I can't get a new copy of NR2003. The situation is getting worse now that some game disks will not work in a rewritable drive, as the software sees it as a copying device. Now I have to swap disks constantly to play certain titles.

If you outlast a CD I'll be impressed. Clean/buff the CD with toothpaste
if it gets dirty/scratched (ditto for DVDs too of course) and it'll last far longer than you'll need it.

THIS is what Kaemmer should focus on - wonder if it's been addressed? They (the theifs) will all be complaining when those servers shut down no doubt. LOL.

You do NOT have kids do you?
I got about 50 cd's I should have sent to you, if you can get even one to work, I'd likely give you 10 bucks. all of them the kids tittles like reader rabbit that no longer read... One was stepped on, the rest look as if you played frisbee with them, in a parkinglot. all of them kids tittles unless you count the one I had to send to SIerra, because it has been stepped on (broke it into 2 pieces). You might say I have outlasted CD's and Byron.... "snap!" as of now, Hahahahaa.... Byron Forbes enlightened us with: > If you outlast a CD I'll be impressed.

Sounds like a good idea, but I'm still in the same situation. IF
something happens (the CD drive doesn't like Crest for example), what then? Got a link for the toothpaste bath step by step? |

Smear a little toothpaste on the CD/DVD and use your finger as a buff.
Dont let the toothpaste dry too much though else it gets too abrasive. Then just rinse with water. Especially useful when hiring DVDs.
