When that has happened to me, I chose to buy a used copy from amazon.com or half.com

Or bring the one you have to a record store or something and ask them if they can remove them. That's what I do

to me thats when use of a file sharing software should be legal to download music. ive got a couple cd's that skip on like one or 2 songs that i really dont wanna go out and spend $20 or so on the cd again.

@mongor64.
Hey sometimes it worth trying burst mode. I've had good luck with burst mode skipping past small scratches yet still coping all the music. Sometimes you may get a glitch which can easily be edited out with an audio editor. I do use burst mode as a last resort, I normally do a secure error correcting rip.
