Title: This is as Bad as They Come...
Review: I whole-heartedly agree with the below reviews. This is a total piece of trash, I would not even give a product like this away for free. When I first purchased this model, I went home, plugged it in, and the tray would not open! I then took it back to the store and got another one. This time, I am encountering the problems that everyone else has listed--skipping and freezing--even for new discs. My success rate with being able to play a disc from start to finish without problem is less than 50%, which is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.Even worse, I wrote Phillips a scathing letter with no acknowledgement from them whatsoever. I was going to send it back to them to get it repaired, but after reading the reviews below, I won't bother. I'll just pitch this in the trash, so thanks to everyone for saving me the postage. I wish I had seen these reviews before I purchased this piece of garbage.
