You post this less than a week after Toshiba issued a firmware update
that fixes these issues that a minority of owners were having. The
firmware is free and easy to install (just plug an ethernet cable into a
high-speed modem, or ask Toshiba to mail a CD-R). I'm sure you already
know this, and are just trying to spread more FUD.

Here's one for you: Sony is having a 40% failure rate with single-layer
Blu-Ray discs, and over 75% failure on dual-layer discs. BLU-RAY =
STILLBORN.
