PS3 Won't read disc

In fact it stopped even trying. I was playing NHL 2011, announcers stopped talking, I found this weird, so I paused the game. All was fine, then after a few more minutes of no announcing, I paused again and it essentially froze on me. I've tried to put 2 different games in and it wont start to read them. I power cycled a few times, did the system restore and it doesnt want to read them. I had an original system that was a 60gb model that would be four years old in about 2 weeks. Figured it wanted to go to a better place.

Guess there wont be any NCAA 12 for me this year.

Anyone know of any solutions or should I just get a slim? If I do that, Im going to wait til Fall when Fifa comes out.

Thanks.
