ok, so I had a friend over tonight, and we decided we would watch LOTR: Fellowship extended on DVD on my PS2.

about half way through the first disc, my playstation said the disc could not be read. I took it out to see a surface without blemish. I put the disc back in the Playstation, and It wasn't able to load the DVD at all. Just said "disc read error" on my browser screen.

We watched the rest of the disc in another room on another DVD player, and came back to the PS2 to start disc 2. Half way though, same problem. Just stopped reading. Couldn't detect the disc after being turned off and on again either. I'vbe heard of first gen PS2's losing the ability to play DVD's out of nowhere, but other DVD's still load up. I got my PS2 a good 6 months after release. Any ideas?
