Not tried cheap cdrs (I use memorex ones), but I would have thought vcds would be ok on any disc.
Price: Amazon.co.uk currently have it cheapest (i`ve seen) @ £129.99.

It plays almost everything. I have couple of CDs (burned) that won’t play on it and even cause an internal error of the machine, freezing it. I also have 2 or 3 DVDs (original) that this player sometimes won’t recognize, it tells me that there’s no disk in it.
Mine is 2 week old (new) and the menus are different from the ones explained in the manual. Has any1 the same? The sound is also a bit pour when playing it through the tv, it’s very low, compared with other devices I’ve got attached, even though it’s internal volume is at the max output.
Never the less I like some of its features. I have also a NS300 from Sony and could only dream of having all the kiiro’s toys.

Regarding non-playing discs...... Take out the disc, turn off the machine and UNPLUG it. Go away, make a cup of tea (or whatever) and when you come back plug the machine back in again and it should be ok.

Just as an aside, try cleaning the disc. The player seems to be a bit pernickerty about dust specs on the surface of the disc. Often i`ll just have to wipe a disc that didn`t play first time and then... no problem.
