How to handle disks- don’t touch!

by Marsha Knackstedt / Tuesday, 17 January 2012 / Published in Tips About CD's and DVD's

From the disks we’ve seen come back to the shop we know that more people need the message on how to handle disks correctly to keep them working.disk
Don’t  touch the back of the disk with anything. The back of the disk (the side that goes down in the dvd player without the label on it) is where the information is contained on the disk. Any scratches or finger smudges can affect the playability of the disk. When you pick up a disk, hold it by the edges of the disk or the edge of the inner hole only. When we set a disk down at Leave A Legacy it is either in it’s jewel case or we flip it upside down.
