So are you saying that even a CD if badly damaged and which plays in the player does nothing to show that the player will play badly damaged discs? I do understand that your are distinguishing mp3 files from CD tracks. I also understand that it is hard to say when a disc will or will not play by looking at it. My only concern however is addressing the assertion that because one player will not play one disc does not mean that the lot of the players will not play any damaged disc, which I believe to be a huge assumption and a disservice to anyone interested in a good player. The assertion was made that a barely scratched disc had trouble being read in one player and so the argument there is that "then how can you expect discs with more damage to play". I feel that I can disprove that argument easily by playing a more damaged disk as the assertion does not address any technical argument, rather it is only a logical argument. That in itself is of course illogical ;-). So I feel justified in disproving the poor logic there. We will have to leave the technical fact that not every disc despite of its appearance will play in every player, regardless of manufacture, on the table. That's just not going to be disproved and I am not trying to do so. So I understand your point there, but you might also understand mine.
