NIN - Broken on Windows Media Player - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

Someone who has the later issue of Broken (one CD with 90 empty tracks instead of the bonus mini-disc) please put it Windows Media Player and see what it brings up.

I discovered a weird thing today when I tried to play it in WMP. All the titles for the first 6 tracks are switched around. It says Pinion is Suck and Wish is Gave Up, etc. The two bonus tracks (98 and 99) are the only ones that are correct. One of them is written in what appears to be Chinese writing. Most of the empty tracks (7-97) say "Silence"; a few of them are labled with the other real song titles; some of them say things like "Go Back Home" and "I want a Soda".

The songs play fine.... there's just this weird track labeling issue.

I never realized that until now. I see the same as you're describing. Tracks 4 - 6 appear correctly, as do 89 and 90.

Thanks for the confirmation that it isn't just my disc.

I figured it wasn't a defective or scratched disc. Garbled words, I could see. But how could a scratch cause it to call a blank track "I want some soda"?
