I've had two CD players stop working after a while.  Two friends of mine
have had exactly the same problems with their CD players.  After a while,
the players stop playing certain tracks of certain CDs, almost like the
player gets to a certain sound and can't deal with it any more.  The player
just starts the piece over again, or turns off.  This tends to happen more
and more frequently, and then starts happening with disks and tunes that
used to work.  After a while, no CD is playable.

It isn't dirt on the disks.  Maybe it's humidity (we live in Florida).

This has happened with 4 different players that I know of (a Sony D5,
a Sony Discman, and two different full size units).

Are all CD players really this bad?
