d_skin.jpgNo matter how careful you are, it's hard to protect your DVDs or CDs from getting scratched or dusty. That is, until now. Norazza, Inc., a manufacturer of high-quality DVD/CD and digital products, designed the d_skin. It's an ultra-thin skin that snaps on to the readable side of any video game, CD or DVD for protection. Best of all, the skin can be left on while the disc is playing.

The d_skin uses a patented Liplock Seal that's able to fit onto the edge of any disc. A 5-pack of d_skin starts at $12.99 and is sold in retail locations including Hollywood Video, Game Crazy and Micro Center stores as well as online at Amazon.com. Need more d_skins? Packs of 20, 50 or 100 are also available.

I saw these things a rather long time ago and bought a pack for my wife who is always scratching her discs. Her VW Jetta refused to recognize there was a disc in the stereo.
I haven't had a problem with other players, but apparently not everything likes these.

Eeek that's not good! I'm getting some samples in, so I'll try them in my car's stereo and other players to see if they work!

How long ago did you see them? I was told that they were just announced last week!

Hi Jen,

These have been out for years. I bought a large supply then found out that my XBOX, Computer and DVD drives would error out. I just threw them all away.

Hi guys, I just got some and they work fine, I use them om my kids DVD's, play station games and my pc's and I have had no problem, you just need to ensure that all the clips are on correctly, also read the package on the d-skin it has a warning about car stereos, but the product is still great.

Yeah, I tried these about three years ago. They seem to work fine in everything but slot-loading car CD players, which is a pain, because that's the exact place where they'd be the most useful. Whoever told you they were just announced this week either just fell through a time warp, or was just plain lying. ;)

I've had these for at least two years. I stopped using them one day when one got trapped in my cars 6-cd changer. I can see using them in a computer CD drive or in a cd player, but anything slot-loaded or with changing of discs is just asking for it to be jammed in there.
