I was told that the track holes of a copied CD are less deep then an
originally pressed CD-Rom and because of that -when the CD is read- the
"laser" would have to search twice as much , resulting in damage of the
laser.
Does any one know whether this true or not ?

Thanks for an expert answer,

regards,
                 Jaap Terpstra.
