And FWIW I spoke to the issue of firmware updates (and the timetable on which they are or are not provided) in my second-to-last post. Call them impatient if you wish, but some guys aren't happy about waiting for a firmware upgrade to play a new BD they just purchased and are eager to watch on their ($500) BD player.

The reference to the improved loader is related if the disk is more beat up (netflix rental for example), the 103/105 is less likely to encounter any HDCP issue, or playback failure then the previous models. Since Cinavia protection is a multi-level watermark that is embedded in the audio track is supposed to resist various transformations of the audio stream, so right its unknown to what extent of physical media damage before it fails?
Playback issues against FW updates is usually a bit unpredictable, sometimes you are trying to not just fix one instance but several, it goes with what the current issues are. Yeah can understand the impatience, but contacting Oppo Technical support directly sometimes yields a beta version to try to see if that corrects the playback issue.
