It often just means your CD player is on the fritz. I've experienced this before and often if you buy a new copy of the same CD it still won't work. Take CDs to a friends house and see if they play on their equiptment.
I take it the discs have been well looked after?

yeah sometimes the lens on the cd player is dirty or just plain ol jacked up.

My copy of Come started skipping for the first time last night, during "Orgasm".

I'm sure there's a dirty joke in there somewhere, I'm just not with-it enough today to figure it out. lol

If you're CD is scratched, try ripping it onto your computer and burning a fresh copy onto a new blank CD.

Ive always noticed that my computer was more tolerant of scratched CDs than my stereo or car stereo.
