Any problems with Springsteens DualDisc?

I've got Springsteens new cd on order with Amazon and its a dualdisc, which, from what I've read does not quite meet Redbook standards. What should I expect? Damage to my Cary 303/200 or my Toshiba DVD player? What kind of sound quality?

I did do a quick search on the forums before writing this note, and I could not tell exactly whether the folks who wrote were experienceing problems with dualdisc or there was just anger in the perception that Sony was taking up the cause of dualdisc in place of SACD.

What's really going on?

Thanks,
Art

I have had problems with two copies of the new Springsteen, BUT on the DVD side. The CD side has played fine. The first one simply locked up on the menu page with white streaks across the page. The second one played the album DD5.1 fine but I got no audio with the music videos.

Mine plays on my Audio Aero Capitole, in my car and both sides work well in my Audiovox DVD/CD player.

I won't buy it because I don't support DualDisc. I'll just have to import the CD - I did get the single CD the other day.

I haven't tried the new Springsteen disc, but I did buy the new Dave Matthews dula disc and it won't play in my Cary CD player at all. Its going back to the store tom first thing. Dual disc is a joke. Record companies are trying to convince us to buy more of their products buy putting this crap format out? I don't think so...
