I was able to weed out a disc from a different plantDave- Can you tell us how you did that?
We have examined the samples in our possession and the cracks are minute in size, and purely cosmetic.Unless their definition of "cosmetic" differs from mine, that statement is wrong since there are some of those who have cracked discs which are no longer playable.
Next, accelerated aging and deterioration tests were conducted on SACDs of Dark Side of the Moon and Star Trek: Nemesis that had cracks present. The purpose of the tests was to see if the discs would remain playable over time and if cracking would increase and worsen upon extensive use. The results of the tests were that the discs remain playable (see statement).Well, what do you know...another Internet "story" way, way, way overblown.
At least we know the truth now:
1. Affected very small number of discs.
2. Discs still remain playable after accelerated aging.
Now we can go back to discussing important things like title releases.
