This is not the place to ask such stupid questions about engaging in illegal activity, nor should you expect anyone here on TR to assist you.

Especially for someone publicly asking how to “crack” a DVD.

It’s getting harder and harder to find the grain for all the chaff.

As if it’s not bad enough that the “All” Discussions list is really only “Some,” or the the “Discussions” listings are actually an admixture of Discussions and “Questions,” over two-thirds of the New “Discussions” are mis-placed “Questions.”
I’m sure that I’m not the only “long timer” here giving TR less attention than I once did.

less attention form long-timers…

That is extremely unfortunate for those of us who have been lurking here for years and sucking up all the great info that you long-timers have to offer! I, for one, have learned a lot from many of you and certainly hope that you all don’t let the nits drive you away!

The touch part, that which distracts one’s attention, is having to read through so much material just to find the true discussions.

The easiest way to ‘crack’ these cd’s
by w2ktechman · about 16 years, 11 months ago
In reply to Copy Cd
is to throw it like a frisbee and make sure it hits something (like a wall).
Or, if you really wanna break it, this is cool too! Freeze it for several hours, then pull it from the freezer and immediately throw it in your cd or dvd drive A few seconds after it starts to spin up, it will stop noisily. Then open your drive bay (may need to do it manually) and check out the ‘broken’ cd.

But, how do you get it out of the damned jewel case?

Or, do you just leave it in the case and hurl the whole lot?

That’s one way

In reply to But, how do you get it out of the damned jewel case?
But the jewel case may have the unfortunate result of protecting the CD contained inside, thus rendering the exercise useless.
My favourite way to crack a CD is to remove it from the jewel case, by fair means or foul, and place it in a standard microwave for about 90 seconds. Stand close enough (but not too close) and enjoy the light show.
Always a good time!

What happens if you put it in the microwave while in the jewel case?

If it is in the jewel case, it is easier

Do Not press on the thing in the middle to release the cd. After all, we dont want to make a mess do we?
Ok, lift quickly on one side, and the cd is sure to snap (unless it is a very cheap case). If it is a very cheap case, use your new hot wax & duct tape solution to keep the pesky cd from moving while prying on 1 side (hey, another sale for you)…Those $$$ are adding up already!

Hmmmm, I always thought
by w2ktechman · about 16 years, 11 months ago
In reply to It’s not the reflectivity of the material that causes a problem; it’s …
that it was the density of the material, and reflectiveness as well. I have noticed in the past that reflective materials for microwaves, are pretty dull (not shiny). But material density would keep metals out still, even if a dulled finish.

Nope; response to visible light is irrelevant.

It’s the response to electromagnetic fields with microwave wavelengths that count.
