Hi,

I have just joined this forum having just tried to play my Special Edition 2 disc set of DVD's for the Terminator.

I searched for Faullty Terminator DVD and found this site with the first message describing Exactly my Fault.

I just placed the Disc1 in my DVD player expecting it to work but the player would not recognise the disc. I took it out and found the playing side to be "Frosted" and Sticky. I washed it to try to remove the sticky film and I got it to play but there were occaisions where the sound and vision were affected.

These are clearly deffective discs and I wondered if the problem was due to the cardboard and plastic case or if the Plastisiser was leaching out of the DVD itself. I have not had any other DVD show this problem but Both Discs were covered with this sticky film which has developed in storage since the discs were bought new and played the first time.

My feeling is that they should be replaced as they are clearly Faulty - but who would I send them back to and if I did would they just say they were only guaranteed for a year.

Help !
