I have a CD, but I can't get it open! 😠 These things are so terrible! I could go get some scizzors, but the house is so cold, and I'm so warm under my blanket. What a conflict.
sealed, that strip across the top you have to rip away about 90 times
to get all the sticky crap off the jewel case! I use a sharp knife and
cut through all the layers at once, if it works right you get the inner
strip also so you can open it without much trouble. I also saw a
lttle tool that resembled on of those miniature can openers, its
a special knife blade contraption that does the same thing. Only
saw it being used once and didn't get the manufacturer or model,
but maybe somebody knows about it.

I managed to get it. I used a USB cable to make the cut, and the rest was just technique. I recently learned the detaching method that darvlay suggested which I used. Then it was just a matter of placing it in the disk drive and listening. The latter of which I'm currently in the process in doing.
Darv: I know you're going to say it's crap whatever I say, so I say not. In your mind is a pen from a blot.
