    I read in a magazine at Barnes and Nobles, just browsing, it had this ad for CD/DVD protectors that you pop them on and leave them on, even put them in a CDROM and it can read them.

    They said they were excellent for PS and PS2 games.

    I forgot where the site was. I looked on google without much luck...

    It was in the magazine: "Computer Gaming" or "PC Gaming", cant remember the name exactly...

    Can you help me find this?

    You didn't ask anything, so we can't help ;)


    Honestly, I bought some and they sucked, they were on correctly and sometimes they wouldn't spin correctly, I don't recommend them, just take good care of your CD's :)

    oh, Mr. Technical, if you actually read my post, I said i couldnt remember the site... meaning, "Can you help me find this site?"

    they may not read or spin, but hey, it protect them more than not having it...

    if you can't help me, then don't post...

    I think theres a similar thing on those UMD discs for the PSP isnt there. With a small strip open for the laser to penetrate.
    I suppose for storage reasons, if you need them theres no reason why not to go for some, see how they are.
    Try looking on amazon, or possibly a the site of a large games/computer shop.

    Don't imply questions, state your problem and ask your question, if you don't ask the question directly then you can expect posts like mine, genius.


    EDIT: But since I'm bored, I'll try to find the link, do you remember the name of the product or maybe the company? I'll look for a few links, hopefully one of them will be what you want <_<

    ^then don't fill up my thread, you retard.

    these are things you flip onto a cd, and you can leave it on, and your PC or PS2, etc, can read it just as it was a normal disk.

    The magazine this came from is "PC Gaming World" I wish I wouldve written this down... now I'll regret this until I get my first issue in a couple months...

    the site was CD something .com, cant remember..... *bangs head*

    The d-skins never worked for me :blink:

    I put one of them on one of my PS2 games, put it in the PS2, and it started making weird noises. I just gave them to a friend after that
