I e-mailed Jon Mulvaney at Criterion and he told me to send it in for replacement. Received the replacement disk within 2 weeks of dropping the defective one in the mail.

If you look at the inner circle on the playing side where all the codes are, do you see "BVDL"? The re-stamped disks should have that code.

There's also a thread called "Early Blu-rays that may have playback issues (Criterion, ....)" that may interest you. https://forum.blu-ray.com/newreply.p...reply&t=328808
Hi,
Thanks so much for your reply! Do you happen to have Jon Mulvaney's email from Criterion? I'm not sure how else to find it. Thanks!
