How do you clean CD/DVDs ?


I've recently received the summer catalogs from Music Direct and Acoustic Sounds Inc. (both great BTW) and noticed there are NO CD cleaning machines!

I have a Nitty Gritty machine (out of production) which does an excellent job but the plastic top pressure lid broke long ago and cannot easily be fixed.

Seems like with the billions of CD type disks there would be twice as many cleaning machines than for vinyl but this is not the case.

Any explanations?

I've been working on a machine myself, but it's really an exclusive edition with a price-no-object approach. I can finally reveal some of the revolutionary technology as my patents just recently came through. First the machine applies a precise layer of foaming gel to the surface of the CD followed by five rotating razors that'll be sure to get any of the dirt that happens to snap back. Pulsating jets of pressurized hyrdro therapeutic aqua solution combined with my secret Irish deodarant soap follows that, after which a powerful swiss vacuum doing kicks in (and let me tell you now; it really sucks!). After the vacuum there is what I like to call the extensive tanning cycle when the CD is exposed to powerful UV light. Then the magnets raise up, and you'd better keep your credit cards and keys in the next room! A fine dusting of talcum powder and a warm dreamy shot of compressed air conclude the cycle. Let me tell you, your discs will be so damn clean you can see yourself in them!!!

PS If you have to ask the price you probably can't afford one.
