My Bose wave music system III, radio/CD player suddenly won't play CDs?

Hi,
I'm not sure how old mine is but it worked beautifully until suddenly it didn't. Now it flashes "Reading Disc" several times and then says "Not Playable". Does anyone know what might be happening and what to do about it?
I can't find the model number (curious), just the serial number.
I appreciate any help.
Thanks

I put a drop of 3 in 1 electric motor oil on the spindle motor bearings. It will play CDs now.
