Ok.  Here's the best way to identify the playing surface and non playing
surface of a CD.  Braille readers will be able to use their finger tips but
for those who have sensitivity problems use your finger nail but very
carefully.  Probably the easiest way to do this, if you are doing it for the
first time  is to place the disc in the case.  From the centre of the disc
slowly run your finger nail towards the outer edge of the disc.  About half
an inch from the spindle hole you will find a deep groove, your finger nail
will pick this up.  This is the non playing surface.  Now if you turn the
disc up the other way and again slowly and gently run your finger nail from
the centre towards the outer edge about half an inch from the centre you
will find a ridge.  Depending on the brand of the disc the ridge will vary
in how pronounced it is but it is there and It is a ridge.  This is the
playing surface.  Once you get used to feeling it then you will know at a
very brief touch which side is which.  Walter.
