Would treated CD's or OOP's-hold its value later?

Actually circumcision can be reversed...kinda. You guys never seen that episode of Penn & Teller's BS I take it? There's apparently an entire movement of people angry with their parents for making such a decision without their consent so they've figured out a way to get their turtleneck back. It looked rather painful with weights and what-not. I think it was an episode from their second or third season.

As silly as it may sound, I use a spray on-wipe off product called Shine-Ola on my CD's (and DVD's) and it really works. I had used RRL fluids for vinyl records for some time and a member advised that I try their Shine-Ola. It seems to add more depth and clarity to CD's and more detail and crispness to DVD's. I am not sure how it works, but it does no damage and does not alter the disc in any way, so it may be worth your while to try

I suggest you do what I do: make copies on CD-R of the discs you want to treat, and do all the tweaking on the CD-R's.. Good CD-R's are cheap these days, and often a copy sounds better than the original does (if you use quality media and burn them with care).

Personally, I'd never do anything to an original CD except cleaning it. To answer your question: no, I would not want to buy a "treated" CD at all!

Nevillekapadia- If you haven't tried any of these CD tweaks, how do you know it's a 5% sound improvement. Suggest you give a Nespa Pro a try.

"Viridian/Qdrone/Shawn thanks for your insights. I will stick to no modification, as it's just not seem to be worth the extra 5% sound improvement."

Hi Kana,
The reason why I say it is a 5% improvement, as the dealer who used the cutting lathe, nespa pro'ed (30secs) the Cd and then used the Nanaotech fluid on his own Cd copy, of which I have the same, left it with me to audition over a few days. hence the comment on the 5% sound improvement.
On a revealing system like mine (IMO)*. I could comfortably say that the CD lathe flattened the sound- it went to a very 2 dimensional sound.
Then the Nanotech liquid brought the body back and the Nespa-Pro for 30 secs did not make much change.
the recording was a SACD of Ray Brown-Soular Energy (decent quality from the start) so there may have not been much to improve on.
