Here's yet another incredible audio tweak I've figured out for you;
ever wondered how to make that annoying CD go quiet when you put it in
your player?

Wonder no more, it's easy and it won't cost me a penny! You'll need
some Post-it stickers but they shouldn't cost me anything as you can
steal them from work for me.

Turn the CD in question play-side up and apply the Post-it stickers
liberally over the surface. Take care not to put too many stickers on
the CD - that might stop you putting it in your player.

Insert the CD and - hey presto! You'll find that the music/speech or
whatever else it was you wanted to avoid hearing is now completely
inaudible!

Please give it a try and let me know how you get on with it.

This tweak is scientifically unfounded, but I have a version that actually
works:
1. Place the CD play-side up as before
2. Hold a sterling silver fork in your fist, tongs down, so they contact the
playing surface (note, plated forks do not work, only PURE SILVER MUST BE
USED!)
3. With firm, constant pressure, push the tongs of the fork onto the playing
surface, while moving the fork in a clockwise cycloid motion (note:
counterclockwise will not work, and can result in even worse sound!)
4. Continue the process until the surface of the CD is a complete
scratchfest.
5. Now, flip the CD over, and do the same to the label side, until no
reflective coating remains.
6. You should now have a CD of unparallled transparancy, or at least,
translucency.
7. For perfectionists only: Using a permanent felt marker that contains
xylene, write all over both sides of the disk: "Sound has Priority". This
works best if you use the hand opposite your handedness.

Give it a try, and let me know how it works!
