its weak and pointless. buy a snow globe and mod it into a laser here:

theres a laser thingy a that hits the cd!
A computer CD burner is, at a basic level, a laser diode. Just like a light bulb, these diodes can burn out.
laser and mirrors
Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) uses 650nm wavelength laser diode light (part of the electromagnetic spectrum, in visable light section) which allows us to see it. CD uses 780nm wavelength, just outside of the electromagnetic spectrum, hence why we cannot 'see' it, only hear.
You need to clean the laser lens.
Gas,solid state,diode The first laser was a solid state laser. Solid state refers to any solid material like a glass rod. Diode lasers are very common because they are used to read compact disks and digital video disks in computers, CD players, and DVD players. Before diode lasers, the most common type of laser may have been the helium-neon laser, in which the active medium is a combination of the two gasses helium and neon.
The CD disc is a 'sandwich' of a thin layer of metal and plastic. (The metal is the 'meat' - the plastic is the 'bread'. The metal layer has music recorded on it by a laser - which creates microscopic 'pits' in the surface. The CD player has a (less powerful) laser - which reads the pits - and converts the data into music.
try a CD player cleaner. it comes in the form of a CD with brushes on the disc to clean the laser. if that fails, there may be a problem with your CD player.
The 'L' in Laser stands for "Light". The term "laser" means: Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation, and the radiation refers to Light, not alpha, beta or gama particles.However, If you looked directly into the LIGHT output of a laser from a CD or DVD, it WILL cause permanent blindness or permanent partial loss of sight.
When you listen to an audio CD in a CD player, the player uses a laser to read the digital data encoded on the disc's surface. The laser beam reflects off the pits and lands of the CD, which represents binary information (1s and 0s). This data is then converted into an analog audio signal by the digital-to-analog converter (DAC), allowing you to hear the music through speakers or headphones. The player also manages the rotation of the disc and the movement of the laser to track the correct audio information as the CD plays.
No. Data on CDs and DVDs are laid out in rings. Think of the rings as the groove on an old phonograph record. The "grooves" on a DVD are much tighter than those of a CD. The laser in a typical CD player would not be able to read them correctly.
There is no difference- writing files to a CD involves using a LASER to leave marks on the CD that can be re-interpreted later on by another CD player. Because of the fact a laser is used, the term 'burning' has come into common use.
