Not positive, but I think it straightens the disc.

Wow I would have thought it would warp the disk like leaving it out on the dashboard of a car.

Actually I believe it melts off an extra layer put on the disc by OXM, kinda like wha blockbuster use to do with their game shields to protect the games, when in reality it just prevents your box from being unable to read it sometimes. I don't kno why OXM does that stupid shyt.

Yeah I think it removes some kind of "film" or imperfections from the disk, allowing it to be read better.

All I know is that it works.

What do you mean by boil it? You mean put it straight into the water or put it on top of it?

I had a music cd that i had that wouldnt work in my pc dvd drive..i had stuck it in my shorts pocket and forgot it was there..well a few days later when i did laundry i forgot it was in my pocket..well it got washed in the wash machine with all my cloths..i saw it in the wash machine and said what the hell..lets see if it works and low and behold it worked and has worked ever since...and i couldnt get this cd to work for anything in any cd player or dvd drive,etc
