I had disk read errors all the time, to the point where it would no longer ever read a disk
I think the new ones are having problems too, because these things posted in wal-mart were fairly new, and it talked about what to do if you bought the system in the first 90 days, and what to do if you bought it more than 90 days ago.
Sony doesn't always fix the systems for free, it seems to depend on the mood of the operator you get when you phone them, one guy told us we had to pay some amount of money plus pay shipping, and another guy said we only had to pay for shipping to get the system fixed. We just took it to some sony liscensed technition in Calgary and exchanged the system though, so now I have one of the newer models rather than the first model.
