On that note, why do people smear their fingers all over the optical surface of discs? Or scuff them about on the desk? Discs are not as robust as some people think, and they come with warnings on the labels to treat them with care. Writable discs seem even more susceptible to finger prints than pressed discs. And you can't always clean off what you do to them. Leave muck on it long enough, and it can chemically react.
