Toshiba launched five digital versatile disc players and three large-screen TVs on Tuesday, but lost in the hoopla was a much more significant piece of news for DVD owners: the consumer electronics company is promoting a new product that can restore scratched DVDs to their original condition.

Stores that rent out DVD discs have long complained about their fragility. After just a few uses, they say, discs can come back with scratches or other damage that renders them unusable.
