Best CD lens cleaner

Any suggestions on the do it yourself cd lens cleaners?
I'd like to buy one in order to maintain my gear.
But I'd like some feedback if anyone knows of a cleaner that works.

I don't subscribe to the 'stiff little brush glued to a CD blank' school of cleaning. There's something about a chunk of plastic banging against my laser assembly at 300rpm that doesn't sit well with me.
