If you are talking about the bottom side of the disk, you can use (don't laugh) brasso or some of the car polish rubbing compounds. Polish it up and you might be able to read it.

If the top side of the disk (the paint side) is scratched, its a different matter, in this case, data has been destroyed.

There's also things you can buy at Gamestop or Blockbuster maybe, it's called Scratch Doctor or something like that. I always see it but I wouldn't even consider trying to fix a scratched CD. It will just sound like crap anyway.
