Why are CD's decling in quality?

When CD came out in the 80's , they were marketed as 'indestructible'. They were built in such a way that they were almost impervious to any scratches and other damage.
As time went on, they declined in quality to the point that you could buy a cd and find it skipped on the first playing. Now many CD's I buy in the 21st Century seem to be incredibly vulnerable to damage. This is very frustrating.
.Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts on this topic?
Or knowledge of why this has come about

They are quite durable but not indestructible. The
designers did a very good job with the technology of the
time (which has improved vastly since) for CDs to still be
where they are 30 years later.

How many gadgets designed 30 years ago are still relevant
and so widepsread?
