Tips & Warnings
I recommend paying for the disk protection if the DVD rental store like Blockbuster and Hollywood video stores have. That way if you break or damage the disk you will not have to pay the full retail value for the disk if the DVD is damaged.
If you use a lint cloth the fibers of the lint can actually scratch the DVD when you are attempting to dry or clean the face of the DVD disk.
