I tried to put some thought into this before responding so here 'goes.I think your colored laser comment is, althought thought provoking, way off the mark. If the laser for the DVD needs to be a different color, then how can it play audio cd's at all?
My Yamaha plays: standard, consumer purchased, pre-recorded cd's AND computer OR stand alone 'burnt' cd formats but does not have the decoding ability to understand the compression format of MP3's.
My Sony AND 2 DIFFERENT GENERATION Panasonic DVD players DO play Consumer level pre-recorded CD audio format as well as DVD's but REFUSE to recognize audio in any type of 'burnt' format.
So therefoer we BOTH do acknowledge that SOME DVD players will play 'burnt' audio as well as DVD AND standard pre-recorded stuff. If the laser therory WERE true than the clolred laser issue would NOT allow the DVD player to play any audio at all.
IE: IT'S SOFTWARE NOT HARDWARE! And I can't forsee why any manufacturer would not include this 'software' as commonplace unless forced by "regulation or monetary lincesing" issues.
Sorry but I just DON'T buy into that theory, diferent colored laser or not!
