this cd is a dual disc
CD on one side DVD on the other
the disc is slightly thicker than a normal CD/DVD
first off I like to try to burn ONE copy of my new cds so I don\'t ruin them, I never get around to doing this but I thought a copy of this CD would be a MUST becuase of the fact it has a dvd on one side. That brings me to the first problem of the disk..you cannot burn copies of it
then I bring it into my car to listen to, the thickness of the disc caused it to have some resistance sliding into my CD player...as does a disk with a sticker label on it.
I bring it into work. I play the entire cd and take it out...all the while trying to not get a single scratch or fingerprint on it. The portion of the player that closes onto the disk had made marks on the dvd side of the disk...probably due to it\'s thickness.
I also played the disk in my dvd player and my cd player at home and my GF played it in her diskman..with extra special care during the handling of the disk.
after a week or so of having the disk I have noticed unexplained scratches on the disk. not in a random pattern as if the disk had been mishandled, but in a circular pattern as if one of the players had been damaging the disk...again most likely due to the thickness.
NOW the cd side is scratched in a circular pattern and the dvd side had marks on the top (DVD side) from playing it in my sony boombox at work. also SLIGHT scratches from putting it in and taking out of my car player.
the CD, as well as the DVD side will soon be useless, and the disk leaves me with no option to burn a copy. If you want the soundtrack I suggest that you DO NOT GET THE DUAL DISC VERSION...since you will probably be buying the dvd anyway.
just my two and a half cents...BTW I got the disc on EBAY for 13 dollars shipped, so at least I didn\'t have to pay 19.99 plus tax at the local music store.
