How does one clean a dvd if it has an inch of old, crusted shit on it?  I just want an answer, please don't try to sell me anything.
Guess that means i'm back on zigzag!
Movies before 1930 suck

This may sound crazy, but sandpaper works really well

I heard toothpaste will make a good CD cleaner and will actually help repair scratches. Might work for DVDs too.

Toothpaste also applied to pimples will remove the oil from it when it dries it, you just pick the crust off and viola.

I think he was implying that you can fashion the crust into a viola.

Once it's clean, use Peanut Butter (NOT JELLY, I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW HARD JELLY REMOVER IS TO FIND THESE DAYS) to access the SPECIAL FEATURES

Soap and water, but don't wipe the disc in a circle, wipe it from the center out in a straight line.

Is it safe to resurface DVDs? I'm assuming...

I think it is... I actually think I saw a DVD resurfacer-thingie for sale at Hollywood Video one time... unless I was imaginging it. I dread the day I'll actually have to try something like this out on one of my own precious DVDs.
""Money doesn't come into it. It never has. I do what I do because it's all that I am." - Morrissey

"Lacan stressed more and more in his work the power and organizing principle of the symbolic, understood as the networks, social, cultural, and linguistic, into which a child is born. These precede the birth of a child, which is why Lacan can say that language is there from before the actual moment of birth. It is there in the social structures which are at play in the family and, of course, in the ideals, goals, and histories of the parents. This world of language can hardly be grasped by the newborn and yet it will act on the whole of the child's existence."

There is an indie video store in Atlanta that will re-surface any cd, dvd or game disc. I took a couple criterions I bought used to them a while back. Whatever they did, it worked great. So I know it's possible, I just don't know how they did it.
As far as cleaning goes the soap and water thing is how I do it. I use a light dish soap that'll get rid of the oil left behind by fingers.
