Thanks for the update, Rick! I'll just hang tight, and probably just order thru Sky Publishing when all this eventually gets  straightened out!

Sorry guys-
it's a data DVD for your computer, not for your TV.

Sean,
Are you sure? It doesn't say anything like that on the disk or in the ads. What about folks who don't have sound cards? And the customer service lady didn't say that.
And even so, it shouldn't have eaten my DVD player.

Yup, I'm sure, just asked. Customer service isn't here in the office, so I don't know what they were told. I can't speak for your DVD player though.

You really ought to make that clear in your ads. Had I known that, I wouldn't have bought it. I really didn't expect to be sandbagged like this.

sorry Rick. I agree- that should have been made clear. My DVD player also flakes out when I put a DVD data disk in it too.

OK, I tried the disk on my laptop. The first thing that happens is, the computer warns me that the disk contains active content that could harm my computer. I have no virus checker on that computer, since it never gets online, so this makes me nervous.
But I finally decide to risk it. I click to go ahead, and then it tells me that I need something like "Easy Player" to see the pictures, and wants me to click to download it. Now, I'm really irritated, and I eject the disk.
So, you not only can't play it on your DVD player, you can't even view it without an internet connection, preferably high speed.
I yams disgustipated.
