My 4-year old plays our PS3 a great deal. It has loads of games she can play, and she does so frequently. She loads the machine with the BDs (which don't scratch at all, I hear -- is that true? If not, I'll have her be far more careful, but I've had no issues so far),
That's true, unless of course you cut it with a knife or something. All Blu-Ray discs have a protective coating which resists disc scratching and helps prevent smudging the disc with grease.
DVDs and PS2 discs spin at lower speeds inside the PS3 and I haven't heard any reports of those scratching. The PS3 is also reported to be able to better read old scratched PS2 and DVD discs than the PS2 can.
