I've used photorec and recoverjpeg both to restore deleted files, you can also recover files from damaged CD/DVD media.
Normally you can't read them well because you get a read error, but using dd_rescue you can make an image telling dd_rescue to continue reading even if there are errors. Then you can recover files from the image file you make.
To get a good dd remember to check the blocksize (normally 2048) and count with isoinfo first, and use the bs=2048 and count=X flags for dd.
