YES. SONY IS GAY. my CD changer would either not play CD-Rs at all, or would mess up the track timing, choosing only to play BRAND NEW unscratched cds.
Older cd players are a bit funny with cd-r's, ive got an old pioneer cd head unit in my car and sometimes it has trouble playing cd-r's. I find using certain media helps as does burning at a slower speed. Edited by: zak.
