If you need a new CD I would try Staples.

Commercial CDs, such as the product CDs from Microsoft, are produced
by a machine stamping process and it is physically impossible to add
to or alter the data contents of these.

It is, however, possible to physically damage the CD so that it is
unusable. One easy way of doing this is to write on the label (upper
surface) of the CD with a ball point pen.

If your CD is damaged and it is a Windows XP Upgrade CD then you can
obtain a replacement from Microsoft.

Good luck
