CD lense cleaner. Is it necessary ?



I'm wondering if my cd player may need the optical lense cleanded as it is a used player. I've seen the basic cleaning discs such as the ones in Radio Shack and other electronic box stores. Is this procedure really necessary? If so how often? and which process/brands of cleaning devices really work? Again, it is the optical lense in the player's transport that i'm looking to clean. Thanks.

I was ready to get a new DVD video player since certain discs were not being read by it while playing on other players, until a friend suggested I try the Radio Shack cleaning disc.
They had several to choose from. One was for DVD and CD palyers one was for just DVD. It was hard to see what the differance was but I purchased the one for DVD.
It worked very well and all the discs that wouldn't play now play perfectly.
