I believe the DVP-C600D is a generation older version of the player in dispute, and mine definitely plays every CD-R I've put into it.
So, this leads me to believe that they're either using a cheaper mechanism, or did it on purpose.
Make of this what you will.
A modest proposal for making spam easy to deal with while dodging free speech issues:
Pass federal and state laws requiring that the subject line of all unsolicited commercial email begin with the following:
UCE:
Add in jail time & big fines for noncompliance.
Anyone who doesn't want spam could stop it with one filter, or create absolute hell for the noncomplying spammer; they've got to have *some way* for people to contact them in the message.
The First Amendment guarantees a right to speak, not a right to be heard.
I Have AT&T One Rate and am very satisfied with it. My travels are mostly up & down the Western US and coverage is great. $40 to $100 a month for a set number of minutes (several plans), + $.25 a minute after. No roaming, no long distance. They have never screwed up my bill, but I have gotten a couple spam calls,(not billed)trying to offer a better rate for another year contract.
I can live with that.
I got a Nokia 5 series triband phone, PCS, Digital, Analog. So if the town you're in has any cell service at all, you're good to go.
My $.02, hope it helps.

From the way DC is going on, you'd think that they invented barcode scanning.
Do they even realize that someone out there might have a scanner that >>is not<< a Poo Cat?
Seems to me the real issue here is whether upcbarcode.com will stand their ground or fold under the threat of a lawsuit they can't afford, no matter how unjustified or unwinnable it is.
DC's panicky squealings used to be slightly amusing to me, but this is too much.
*This company is EVIL and must be DESTROYED!*
IDEA: If you travel a lot, say, for work, why not stop at the RS in every town you happen to be in and grab a Poo Cat under a false name?
We could have a contest to see who can get the most!;^)

You should all go listen to "Hot Dog" by Limp Bizkit.
Then, you will all understand everything, as I now do.
