I tried the distilled water on a microfibre cloth thing with my hard
drive.  It was a devil to get in there, but oh the sound now...

We have been assuming that all the cleaning process does is improve the
transport side, but anything is possible: it could be removing static
spikes that cause some blip in the DAC or output section.  It could
prevent the release of negative ions while the disc spins, preventing a
certain feel-good factor.  Unfortunately, arguing whether these are
self-evident or chocolate teapots is unlikely to convince the other
side - it's a religious thing.  You won't win the argument, you'll just
push up your blood pressure.  Listen to some Schubert instead :)
