My dog ate my "Now That's What I Call Music Vol. 9" CD when I was about 10... good riddance. And I'm still surprised that my dog was fine after eating a CD..

On the drive to the gym this morning I destroyed my burned CD of Neurosis' The Eye of Every Storm because it refused to register in my CD player. This is more a problem with my shitty 13-year old car CD player than the CD, but I still snapped it in half out of frustration.

Pete, you may want to try using a bit more expensive CD's and burn at lower speeds. It can help :)
