Well, when I got it from Play.com a few months back, on my DVD playerit would play fine for a couple of episodes and then would just break down and skip over doing an entire episode in a matter of seconds. Cleaning the disc had no effect and in other players it wouldn't even recognize the disc.
So I sent it back and got a replacement, and when that turned up it had exactly the same problem (Even starting to play up in the same spot) so I have been once bitten, twice shy. I sent that back and got my money back. I fiured that it couldn't have been a dodgy batch sent out to Play.com, but have been too cautious to go and buy it somewhere else where I would get store credit instead of my money back!......
