It was revealed on Game Network (223) that a biologist has discovered a new fungus which actually grows on CD's. This fungus grows on the CD and breaks them down, eventually rendering the CD useless. The biologist said that proper care of CD's should prevent the fungus from growing on the CD.

Watch Game Network. They normally repeat the news flashes for about a week so you still might catch it.

One of the Maths classes in my school has cd's along one of the walls. Unsurprisingly though, a lot of them have been pulled down. Because they really, really want an AOL trial. Hmmm.

You can actually hang CDs on the wall, I knew someone how did that. It looked really cool actually.

We use the countless AOL and Freeserve CDs you get as stylish coasters too. Recently I've been using buggered CD-Rs but they're blue and crap.

The PS2 gets so hot it'd probably kill them anyway. Just drop them in funghicide or bleach. That should do it.
