Quote:Well, let me just ask you this. How often is it that you have disks lying face up on the top of your computer, in perhaps a stack? Perhaps you often open a box to find it either empty or with another game's disk in it, perhaps two other game disks forcibly stacked onto the spindle in the case? These are the sorts of things I've seen others do, and it isn't pretty.
Virtually never. As I said, I keep them in their cases or in the drive, not loose in piles.
I have done some disc stacking (that is, putting two discs in a space meant for one), but only for some console games, to fit them into the cases I have (I keep my console discs in CD holder cases, not their cases), never for PC games.
Quote:Drives don't scratch disks though, unless as I said the drive itself has been damaged. The danger period would only be in the person putting the disk in and taking it back out.
I just don't think that that's completely true...
