I've been buying cheap CompUSA-branded CD-Rs for quite a while, and I am finding that the old ones that I've burned are becoming corrupt. However, there seems to be a retroactive solution to this problem: CloneCD. It's mostly used to copy protected CD-ROMs through RAW mode, but this mode can also be used to read corrupted CDs. This process takes a while (about 10 hours for a CD that I just ripped), but it's worth it. After the rip, you can use Iso Buster to extract the files embedded in the image, and use them as you need.
