I have a Philips Expanium and I've been using CDRW lately on the premise
that this was cheaper and less wasteful than using CDRs to store my catalog
of MP3s to listen to. Problem is that they've been skipping a lot lately in
the Expanium (not in my desktop.)

So I bought the Skip Doctor to repair the CDRW. After I did the Expanium
won't read them period. My desktop still will. So my question is two-fold.

#1 - Is there something about CDRW that CD MP3 players have trouble with
after a few burns?

#2 - Is the Skip Doctor meant to work on CDRW? I could never seem to "buff"
it enough to get it shiny and I'm wondering if I should take the Skip Doctor
back.
