Blu-ray disc coatings starting to rot? {Engadget HD}

Jun 16th 2007 8:02PM Somebody please comment on whether the DVD corruption issue has been addressed. Over 10% of the DVD movies I rent from NetFlix or Blockbuster have massive chunks of unplayable data on them. I even bought a new DVD player thinking it was me, and same thing. Friends see about the same rate of unplayable DVD's coming out of netflix.

How in the world can Blu-Ray and HD-DVD be MORE reliable than DVD when they have a much higher data density? If HD-DVD fixes the problem with media being unplayable (?!), I'm there.
