Hmmm...
that's exactly what I used to think.
Couple of months ago, I remember reading a DVD review in a respected Australian Hi-Fi mag (and for the world of it can't remember where I've put the copy), and that particular DVD (model # in the lost copy, sorry) refused to play CDs (audio) made on ANY type of writable CD media, yet originals worked OK. Also, a friend of my has just bought a PC internal CD duplicator and is complaining that the CD copies have a tendency to skip tracks when played on the car CD player; again, the originals are 100% OK. It would seem that tolerance has something to do with this phenomenon.
As far as using a dedicated player, such as the Philips mentioned in the original posting, I'd go against it, mainly because it apparently has a duplication inhibitor (ie. it WON'T bloody copy), if the original CD has an anticopy signal. I am not talking macrovision here, but some 'extra' info bit which the player reads and responds to - it doesn't just blindly copy one to another.
