No, that's a myth. However there are plenty of cheap ways to fix disks that are scratched. The best cheap way is to buy a used game because most of the home remedies do not work

There are several motors in disc players. First, there is a platen motor to rotate the disc. There are normally two motors for the laser head to move the laser across the disc and to raise and lower the head. These keep the laser tracking the disc correctly. Finally, there is a motor to open and close the disc tray.
What is a rear disc patch?
I had this happen to three of my games and i fixed one of them after recently discovering how to fix it without a repair kit. You need toothpaste, a toothbrush, car wax (containing carnauba wax, most car waxes do) and a soft, non abrasive cloth. 1. smear some toothpaste evenly around the disc with your finger 2. wet the toothbrush then scrub the disc from the inside to the outside, NOT around the disc in a circle because that's the pattern that the data is written on the disc. Use about the same pressure you would use when brushing your teeth. 3. rub the toothpaste with your finger in the same pattern as you did with the toothbrush, until the toothpaste starts to get sticky, then rinse the toothpaste off of the disc while continuing to rub the disc. 4. If the ring is still visible at this point, repeat steps 1-3, and if the scratches from the toothbrush are still visibly, then repeat step 3 5. Be sure the disc is dry, using a soft cloth to dry it 6. pour some car wax onto the soft cloth, then gently rub the wax on the disc in small circles until the wax turns to a haze 7. using a clean section of the cloth, wipe from the inside out until the disc has a nice shine on it. 8. make sure the disc is clean from the toothpaste and the wax, then you're ready to play again!
rub it down with toothpaste and then as it is drying rub away the access with a tissue and the toothpaste will fill the gaps
