Just my thread, sorta. I'm sorta curious to know if anybody knows any tricks to scratching a CD so it will skip. I tried on one and after several deep cuts it still wouldn't skip, so then I mashed it up real good and the CD player couldn't read it at all. Otherwise would someone know a computer program that could simulate CD skips?
