All this talk about isolation was so interesting that I fired up my Sony
D-5 just to test it out.  Picked it up while playing...  nothing.  Shook it
gently...  nothing.  Shook it harder than I thought reasonable prudent... 
nothing.  Turned it upside down while playing (let me see you LP fans
do this one!)... no audible effect.  Oh well, I guess I'll just have to
get a more expensive player if I want to see a CD mistrack :-)

Isn't talking about CD isolation a bit like talking about disk-drive
isolation. At least, in a properly designed player, shouldn't it be?

(by the way, my local (SF Bay Area) Wherehouse sells all of its Pop/Rock
CD's for $11.99 -- a nice trend)
