Well, it has so far only occured on my 920 with a few *new* Maxell
disks. If it doesn't get any worse that'll be fine. Exchanging the
920 for a 930 would be cool, but the 920 was bought at the Sony Factory
Outlet in San Marcos, TX and they don't have any 930s :-(
I wouldn't mind the keyboard interface (I also own a 630 which has the
keyboard interface and that is where I do all of my MD titling :-)
Thanks to all who replied to this thread. I really appreciate the
advice/info.
