I don't really like picture discs. I have a couple that people have bought me but I'd never buy myself one cause I don't play 'em. Seems kinda pointless to spend money on haha.
One weird thing though, on one of my Cannibal Corpse discs, there is like a spot of oil-ish looking stuff near the hole in the center. Dunno what it is, or where it came from. Record plays find though, and the rest of the record is fine outside of that one spot in the midde.
I only bought one picture disc, Whitechapel's This Is Exile, but I only bought it to turn around and sell it for double to this kid I know who is a uber WC fan :-\"
Yeah sound quality takes a significant hit with a lot of picture discs. Because of the process used to insert the picture, the grooves are smaller resulting in lower quality.
Like Razor, I've gotten a few as gifts but I wont buy any myself. My only exception is Iron Maiden because (correct me if I'm wrong) they print exclusively on picture discs now days.
