As in you put in a disk and it just says open tray?

Yes.

If you can play original games, and watch movies fine, then its a problem with the disk. Could be burned improperly, could be the wrong type of disk... etc.

They are expensive, but whats more expensive, wrecking the media and having to buy it again, or wrecking the disk and buying it again?

You can backup your games, and save the image to your pc for safe keeping until you have enough money to buy the disks...

You could make some money by selling some of your xbox games too...

Although backing up your game, then selling the original copy is illigal, its the same as pirating. I am talking about selling your games that you are not backing up, but do whatever you want, its a free country.
