What is going on????? I read about this and asked my friend to check his copy and he has 4 cracks in his copy. This is not good news for all involved. I am seriously rethinking in investing in SACD....Sony/Universal/Emi get your asses in motion and fix this major problem. :angry:

When was this copy bought? I was thinking about buying that same album myself.

Oh, darn. I have the entire Police catalogue (studio albums, not compilations or live concerts) in SACD. It's crack checking time!

No cracks on my copy of this one either.

Here's a theory. Maybe the problem is not one of materials, but mechanical process? The discs are placed in the cases by machine when they are packaged. Maybe the machinery was miscalibrated during certain production runs, slapping the discs into the cases slightly off center or too hard in some cases. Crack!

No cracks here either.
I already own the DTS CD of EBYT. I guess I will wait a while before buying the SACD.
Javier,
I have both versions and the SACD is cleary superior IMO. I am selling my DTS copy because i will never listen to it again. I know getting a defective/cracked disc would suck but the risk is worth it for me. Sounds excellent.
