Uh ok. Times have changed indeed, but in the 90s CDs were commonly stolen from cars and homes (during parties and such). Easy money I suppose, when you could bring them to a used CD or pawn shops. Plus people didn't have a way to get music for free like today on the internet. So true thieves would steal to sell them, and "acquaintances" would steal them because they wanted them.

I remember going over to a friends house a while ago that I hadn't been to for a while, and finding a few cds that I had let him borrow like 3 years ago. The cds were all beat up, and I haven't loaned anything since then. Now if someone wants to borrow something I just make them a burn.

Yeah I stopped loaning CDs out a long time ago too. I'll make them a copy before I let them walk out the door with a real CD.
