mine has one stuck in it too. After searching it seems like sometimes they will pop out when power is cut to the radio, then plugged back in. I tried this but no luck. I tried prying up, down, tweezers, everything. The cd plays, but who wants to hear the same cd everyday.LOL I finally just threw my old pioneer back in. Good luck.

Or if that doesn't work take a paper clip and straiten it out, the bend one end just enough to fit in the slot. When the cd tries to eject slide in sideways then turn and grab the hole in the middle, pull out. This always works for me too.
