| Finally - a good use for this thing! There is a special CD with
a lens cleaning brush on the market - about $25. I've seen it
in various stores and mail order catalogs.

| My brother just purchase one (from the Wiz in NYC) by Audio Techniques.
It is a disk with alignment info and carbon brushed on it. It was
purchased, through the suggestion of one the noters, to stop a
Magnavox 460 from skipping. The thing he noticed that the CD doesn't
"jump" start (starts about a second into the 1st track), the disks
spin slower, and he doesn't get the random clicks that you hear
when the disk mistracks.

| re .1: I have one of those things that I got when one of my Sony CDXR7s
started going south. (It didn't help by the way). I have loaned it
to several people (portables, home, car) and it seems to do nothing
harmful. In two cases it actually helped. About 1/3 of the time, my
home player "hangs" (no controls have any discernable effect; power off
resets it).

Re -.1 You can get a lens cleaning cd at Natural Sound in
Framingham for $25 --and some change.
My player was not loading some discs, and it would not track
sometimes, all at random. Two passes with the thing (one for good measure)
and the problems are gone.... Maybe; maybe they work.
