Most consumer readers are designed to read the tighter-spec'd
store-bought commercially produced media. Many aftermarket
units deal with the broad-spectrum of other CD issues quite well.

Its not difficulty if your unit wasn't specifically designed to operate
under such a broad array of differences. To bend the capability of
your stock unit some, try using very high quality media. You might
need to try various brands, as well, until you locate some that your
unit is "happy" (compatible) with.
