This is interesting. I waited to get into Compact Discs until spring 1985, when I bought a Sony CDP-111 player with remote control (that I still have). Then, I jumped in to the CD world far and wide, going to stores all over the place to find more CDs that I liked/wanted. Hundreds of them in the first couple of years alone.
In all of my years of buying CDs, I can remember ---one--- CD that was bad! Every other one played flawlessly, every time. That bad one was a 3-inch CD single, that had a physical flaw in the data area (but still had the proper reflective coating).
I have had two or three CDs that I unfortunately damaged, both/all on the label side.
