There are kits you can buy to repair a CD. Walmart has them.

Yikes! Well, I can think of 2 things you could do. You can use a CD repair kit. You can find one at any local computer shop. Basically, you use a chemical to refinish the CD. However, I never had any luck using these kits. The second option is to use a software program to retrieve data off of the CD. It will save the information on to your computer's hard drive and you can then burn it on to a CD blank. I have decent suscess with recovery programs, however, they can take a long time to read the scratched CD. Try Elprime Media Recovery (http://www.elprime.com/media-recovery.htm)

If the reason is they are scratched then use cloneCD software 2 make an image of your CD then burn the image into a new blank CD. It usually works!
Good luck!

I can't remember where I saw it but there was a website that advertised to compleatly repair cds. You send the disks that need repaired to their address, they repair them and they send them back. Could cost a bit though.

you can try buying a relacquering kit. if anything it well help it play once, or long enough to re-burn them onto another cd
