Re: CDs giving up the ghost
this almost warrants a thread of its own on who has bought which remaster of an additional disc and which were better/worse

Re: CDs giving up the ghost
I've only got one knackered CD - Floored Genius by Julian Cope. Even on that one it's only the last couple of tracks that don't play properly. It was the first CD I bought, and got played to death.

Re: CDs giving up the ghost
Which rip-program did you use?
Some skip over damaged sections of a CD and others (like EAC) go back and try to recover as much data as possible.
