The reason for the apostrophe, albeit wrong, is that many of us were taught that the apostrophe tells us when things have been omitted - like the 'o' in 'haven't'. In the case of CDs, the logic is that the 'isc' of 'disc' has been omitted prior to its pluralisation. It's a very common mistake, but I feel it's a little remiss to criticise it. I'm all for the onward-thrust of grammatical-Nazism via internet message boards, but please people, let's head for the grave offenders rather than the odd typo/ forgivable mistake.
*EDIT: I <3 HYPHENS. MORE PLEASE.
