They are right that not many CDs would survive more than a few plays and

Not sure what you meant there. A conventionally made CD (i.e. not a CD-R/W)
shouldn't be degraded by being played a few times.

I was really referring to the random little marks and scratches that a
CD accumulates in less-than-careful hands. Without error correction
even minor marks make a CD unplayable.
