Are Jazz CDs making a comeback?

There are special alcohol based sprays for CD cleaning and treatment. Some are really costly. Sometimes they work wonders with skipping discs, and they can improve the soundstage, depending on your player. Many  consider this voodoo, but I trust my ears, and my wife confirmed what I was hearing during before/after comparisons. It is just 0s and 1s, but a cleaner data signal can make a difference.

There have been several reports over the years of people washing CDs like this and having the label side and reflective layer wash away. After reading this, I stopped washing CDs.

Well, washing is not indicated if you have something with a glued on sticker - it will come off and screw up the reflective layer.  Most cds and dvds you get are not like that.  Washing is ok for most cds if they don't play, IMO.
