    You can actually polish out the scratches

    The data on a CD is not written on the clear plastic under side of the CD. That part works like a lens to focus the laser of the CD player onto the data written on the underside of the top surface. It doesn't always work, but if your CD is goosed anyway, try Brasso to polish out the scratches.

    Any MILD abrasive.

    Like Jay says, but don't press too hard.
