Xbox 360 Disc Scratching Lawsuit Moves Forward
The suit, which dates back to 2007 says that Microsoft “negligently designed and manufactured” the Xbox 360. The suit also says that the console was “unable to withstand even the smallest of vibrations, and that during normal game playing conditions discs spin out of control and crash into internal console components, resulting in scratched discs that are rendered permanently unplayable.”
In return, Microsoft has said that the disc-scratching issues affected only 0.4 percent of systems by disc-scratching. The company further argues that the main cause of gouged discs is actually consumer misuse, not a product defect. It appears the company is taking this seriously enough that it has actually included a clause in the Xbox One terms of service that doesn’t allow for people to file class action suits because of any defects with the Xbox One that might be found. That won’t protect the company against whatever is coming when it comes to the Xbox 360.

I always used to get Scratched discs or Lazer burnt discs from the old xbox 360 but not from the new Xbox 360 Slim E the only disc it used to happen to was MW2 when i wanted to play it the most it would lazer burn.

"Under normal playing conditions" I've had each of the different xbox 360 types and only had discs get screwed up when the console had movements when a disc was in it.
Retards wanting to get paid for being stupid.
