Cracked Disc

Ok, so today I was playing GoW and suddenly I get an error message about the disc being dirty etc. So I pull it out and behold, it was cracked in the center portion. Well I know it wasn't my doing, so that leaves the 360 as the only propable culprit. I was just wondering, what's the deal with cracked discs? Is it a sign my 360 is malfunctioning or is it simply bad luck? And do I call MS for a replacement game or what? This was the first broken game I've ever had so I'm a bit fuzzy on the details...

Thanks

 This only comes from pulling the disk out of the game casing improperly. So take your time and be more careful and you won't have that problem. Also your 360 is fine and you can still play games for long periods still those are not the problem. Go to xbox.com and they have a list of games that have bad casing for people that remove their games improperly and have some sort of replacement program set up. I am not a sbox specialest so go there and do your research
