Player Problems and Warranty Issues Regarding DualDisc

Hopes for the new DualDisc format continue to slip away as a new batch of high-end CD and DVD players from makers, such as Lexicon and Proceed, report continued playback compatibility issues with the hybrid CD/DVD discs.

What seemed like a good idea on paper, may just not be practical in real world conditions. For the latest update on this continuing story, check out the report from Audio/Video Revolution.
