amidst all the gloom and doom of celeb chefs kicking the bucket and cars going up in flame, there is a glimmer of good news.
using 1200 wet'n'dry and Farcla G10 (?) polishing compound, followed by a polish with a wax crayon rubbed onto soft cloth. I removed the
scratch from the G.A.O.B. CD so it no longer jumps 
must have taken 2 hours, including playing the CD to see if it has stopped jumping. 
this is probalby the deepest scratch I have successfully removed, better than my attempt at a David Gray CD that became dished due to overheating when
using a Dremel polishing mop. 
The trick is to use fine polishing compond and rub the surface to and fro in a radial direction.

Well done that man - that's 2 hours of life well spent then
No idea on the GAOB material, but IMHO a "dished" David Grey CD is the best sort of David Grey CD, bar one that's been cross-cut
shredded.
Each to their own though
