One of my Dreamcast disc's is not being read by the system. The laser is fine, as it works for the other GD-ROM's, and CD's.
My question is whether anyone who had/has a Dreamcast knows the best way to repair the disc's; I know ways to repair CD's (toothpaste, etc.), but seeing as the GD-ROM is a slightly different animal which can be extra prone to scratches, is there a better, or more successful way?
I haven't had much luck poking around the web so far, and because the data is so tightly packed, even one scratch can render the game unplayable.

Sonic now works as good as new!
I took it into Blockbuster, because they have a machine that's pretty much state of the art. Normally it costs money, but the guy did it for free, because he had never seen, and fixed a Dreamcast disc ever before. =P

I was going to suggest any one a of zillion places that sells used DVDs/Games but a video renatal place is a good idea too.
Just one thing left to say Dreamcast = fucking win.
