I had the pre THX lasers...but they had developed video problems from too much use so I had to get rid of them. They where basically unplayable.

Can't happen. Like regularjoe said, it was probably laser-rot.

regularjoe said:

Earlier disks are subject to something lovingly called laser rot, the two aluminum disks were glued together and the glue essentially eats its way out from the inside, destroying the data that the laser reads.

regularjoe continued:

laser disk [is] essentially...a fetish product like collecting 8 track tapes or super-8 mm digests of movies.

That describes about half the people here.
