For $10. I have had TWO defective discs from Bethsoft (for Morrowind and Oblivion). Both times they say a $10 fee will replace them. I only had cracks in the disc so i was able to make a copies just before destruction.

I think Brasso is supposed to be good for repairing them, but I've never tried it.

You could always *ahem* acquire a backup from an alternative source *cough*

Isn't the Oblivion DVD free of any copy protection? 😕

If you've already bought the product, download the DVD on BT?

Ive done this with a couple of games, and then mounted the images so I dont have to hunt down the discs for every game I play. For those games Im still able to play online because of my legit CD keys too.

Umm probably somewhere between 4.5 and 8.5 GB. Any high speed connection should be able to manage that in less than a day.
