I just checked mine and luckily my disc was actually fine. No swirls or any hints of DVD rot. I bought mine when it came out 2 years ago. I frequently watched it at the time. Baka naman kaya nagka DVD rot kasi hindi nagagamit yung disc? Napansin ko lang sa karamihan ng post eh yung mga disc na hindi pa talaga napapanood ang may DVD rot.
As per Warner, they've verified that this was a manufacturing batch error and not all the sets they initially released were affected. Their new stocks are all clean as well.
Regarding the inconvenience of having the discs replaced at their office, I kind of mentioned that this may provoke a negative reaction, particularly from those who live outside Metro Manila. Given all the posts here, I'm hoping they get the message and do something about it.
Replacements via the retailers doesn't seem to be an option this time around. I'm
guessing it has something with their commercial arrangements since in other countries, issues like this tend to be handled through the mail.
