More expensive players cope better with scratched disks.

I have a Denon player (one of their cheapest, few years old, probably around $200-300 today) and rarely if ever have a problem - cannot remember the last time a rented disk would not read all the way through. Some disks with thick greasy fingerprints do need a clean first though. But scratches don't seem to be a problem.

On the cheaper player we used to have before, we had rented disks freezing up and skipping regularly and cleaning would not help.
