You should equip yourself with protective gear, i.e., steel-toed boots, and a good pair of pliers. First, carefully loosen the hardware that fastens the housing, by raising it above eye level, and dropping it repeatedly. A crunching sound (rather than the loud clattering sound) will tell you when you have been successful. Next, sitting with one or both boots planted on the machine, grasp firmly with your pliers, anything that is sticking out, and pull with a constant tension, until that element is dislodged. Continue grasping and pulling any protruding parts, until the CD is ejected or exposed. Then, grasp the CD firmly with the pliers, and pull quickly, with a short, jerking motion. Viola! I don't want to travel to my family, this year, for the holidays. What's a nice way to get them to come to me?
