Default Damage to CDs?

Has anyone seen damage to their CDs from the in-dash 6-disc changer on the C6?

Not that it matters but I don't think I've ever had more than 3 CD's is the player at the same time. I've never had a problem...no CD damage.

80 gig Ipod classic, 530+ (and growing) cd's in my center console, no damage

What's a 'CD changer'?

That's neat. What does it have to do with the question I asked?

I guess nothing. Ditch the CD's, get an ipod, fix the problem, eliminate CD clutter

Thanks for the advice...or not.

FYI I not only have a 40 GB iPod, I have over 900 cds (that I own) ripped to my laptop, and that goes with me in the car everywhere. So I beat your measly 500-some. With the new car I'll be able to just go from the laptop to the head unit and I wont have to fool around with the truly screwed-up user interface of the iPod. Thank goodness.

The "superiority" of going CD-less (in your opinion) is not the point. Sometimes I prefer the greatly superior sound quality of real CDs over MP3s. But even that's not the point. The point is, I asked a specific question, and you decided to crap on my thread with your gratuitous and unwanted "advice". I realize that this kind of behavior is a very common thing on Corvette Forum, but that doesn't change the fact that it's flat rude.

To the other posters: thanks for the replies. It sounds like it won't be a problem with this unit.
