I've had both the problem with the stop button and the random gaps. I think the problem with the random gaps occured with a disc recorded from SS2 with "OpenMG (ATRAC3plus)" format instead of "OpenMG Audio (ATRAC3plus)" format which appears to be the current format. I'm not sure if there is any difference or wether it just stoppped happening when the weather warmed up. I've since upgraded to SS3 and spent long hours removing all the "OpenMG (ATRAC3plus)" files from my databse leaving only "OpenMG Audio (ATRAC3plus)" files. As for the stop button I'm somewhat stuck. I have had abd experiences sending things back to SONY. A Digital Video Camera which reported a humidity error constantly consistently worked at their factory. Previously I have sent faulty products back to Amazon with all accesories and packaging for replacements but I cannot with this as I ripped the cable out of the remote by accident. Am I to have to put up with Sony's service centre.
