never really experienced it exploding it in cd drive. but a friend of my had it happen where it exploded into like a million pieces and took him all afternoon to take it out and clean it up. oh and dont ever microwave a cd.microwave + cd = small explosion + unwanted radiation (very bad i think it might give you like cancer so probably best not to do it). Dont try this at home kids.

I bent a CD (those advertisement CDs that they give out for free)..and it 'burst' into tiny fragments.. and they flew at my face.Lucky I was wearing glasses, else I might be blind now.Ah, the foolishness of my youth..

Good thing itunes has the import thing... (as do other programs now)Without that, maybe I'd have a few go kaboom. I listen to many of the same albums.
Thanks to DownShift... whatever happened to him anyway?

It happens easier on speedier drives, as gravity force increases insanely... 52x is 27,500rpm iIrc, it is a veeery fast speed... "At revolutions of about 200 metres per second, today's state-of-the-art lead-foot drives approach the speed of sound - 340 metres per second through air at room temperature - subjecting the spinning disc to a force 1500 times that of gravity, researchers have found."Quoted from: http://www.theage.com.au/Well, I did know they went fast, but not THAT fast... That's like... insane.
