Well, yes, leaving a disc out of its case is a big no-no for me, and in my family. Still, some of the oldest PSX games may have a few minor scratches, but nothing that hinders game play.. FFIX is the only game that broke down as far as I can remember.
In any case, CD technology in general is pretty delicate, and it's actually amazing (or terrible I guess) how noone has figured out a way to make a medium that can take some rough handling (that isn't too expensive either I guess). Maybe they figure it's not worth it, but it leads to problems when a game, album or the like becomes near impossible to find in stores due to how old it is..
