One of the best cleaners is rubbing alcohol, but you can also use a warm water and mild soap solution. Avoid any heavy duty solvents when you clean your CDs, as they can damage the disc. Apply the cleaning solution to a clean lint-free cloth, and wipe the disc, again radially.
LDDB.com is a good place to sell individual discs, and to get an idea of their value. As for the whole lot, ebay would probably be the best. Could also try local classifieds like Craigslist, laserdisc collectors usually keep an eye on those.
Laser diodes have also advanced quite a lot in the last few years, allowing reasonably powerful DIY laser engravers to be made without the hassles of laser tubes. This machine can engrave wood and cut paper.
I started this project because I wanted to make something that had mechanical, electrical and software components. After looking around on Instructables, I figured that an Arduino based laser engraver would be an interesting machine to make, and that the machine itself could make interesting things.
Go with pairs you need to find 2 pairs of pins with a little resistance (usually between 6 and 10 Ω, being the most common 6Ω and 8Ω). Once you find them solder the ribbon cable and leave the other end with bare wire for now.
Of course for a long time work we need to cool down the laser, for DVD it's may be enough just a little piece of aluminum, but in my case I need active cooling.
