    They… Don’t though. At least, not in my experience.

      Dog, what magic CD players do you have? They only made nice ones in cars for a few years.

        I didn’t use mine a ton; I’ve mostly moved on to Bluetooth/AUX… But have driven both a 2001 Buick and 2012 Toyota with CD players in them and have no recollection of anything getting scratched up.

        I read online that sometimes the insert/eject mechanism could scuff or scratch the CD. Any slot load CD player has this kind of risk.

        Once it’s actually in the mechanism and playing though, it should be reasonably secure and there shouldn’t be much that would be able to scratch it.

        Who knows, maybe I just got lucky.
