Default CD disk is very hot when removed. Normal?

I have the Navigation system and single CD set-up in my C6. When I remove a CD, it is as hot as if it was left out laying in the sun. Has anyone noticed this and is this normal on a C6?

Hot is normal... especially if it's been in there for the entire album.

If it's not in a changer, but in a dash unit, it will run VERY hot... you'll think the thing would melt!

Depends on the type of music, I would think.

Some is considered hot, some not.

Everyone's taste varies.
