Oddly enough there is a specific album, live’s secret samadhi, that I’ve never found a rippable copy of. I’ve found like five copies over the past half decade at used record stores, all in seemingly perfect condition in terms of lack of scratches, but they won’t play correctly all the way through or rip correctly. Could be anecdotal bad luck, but I think the cd pressing of that album has bit rot in general for some reason. I’ve not seen that on any other factory discs I’ve ripped.

If it is the same album always, all of the copies were probably manufactured cheaply or deficiently.
