Noise Memes

This type of music tends to challenge the distinction that is made in conventional musical practices between musical and non-musical sound.

I've thought about collecting those as well, though at this point, I just find it hard to justify spending a substantial amount for potentially degraded CDrs.

I did order a Current 93 CDr from 2007 on Discogs recently, though... :? Hopefully I can make an accurate rip from it. :8ball:
Ultimately, I buy CD's and CDr's just to rip them and then stare at them on the shelf while playing back the files on my computer, but there is a particularly urgent motivation to archive them where CDr's are concerned. I've thought about collecting a lot of those MP3.com CDr's you can occasionally find for sale (some grossly expensive)... Ultimately, it's the fear of getting a disc that's too far gone that always holds me back from it. I also learned my lesson regarding pre-'94(-ish) PDO CD's. I've only got one bronzed PDO disc that I can rip accurately with EAC using the oink/what.cd/redacted, etc. guidelines for bit-identical rips. I think I actually killed a disc drive trying to rip a bronzed CD over the course of several days, without success.

BUT I DIGEST...

Well for what its worth the only CDrs I've encountered that wouldn't play had been spray painted. The harshnoise releases were dye sub printed for the disc label.

I have worn out a drive ripping DVDs ... I've gotten many from Netflix that were in terrible shape that still ripped.

I have a disc repair device that can buff out deep scratches so as long as the disc is not cracked it may be recoverable
