Teresa: I suggest you get the facts directly from the DualDisc consortium (re. their extensive pre-production QC testing matrix). If you won't do that, then please put your pipe down.b.t.w. Not one manufacturer says how a machine can "break" by playing a DualDisc: Not regarding 'rotational inertia' issues. Not regarding 'laser focussing'. Not regarding 'error correction'. Not regarding disc 'thickness'. Not any of these.
Granted, some disclaimers do allude to the possibility of one of the sides getting scratched by a slot loader's pull-mechanism. But I'm not worried about that. And FWIW, the SUV'S slot-loader I did try the Keane title plyed it fine; it did not get stuck; and it did not scratch the top side of the disc. (I can't speak for other people's experiences with slot-loaders of course).
