I've had a similar problem on my new 15" Powerbook with the Kill Bill 
Vol. 1 soundtrack CD. It plays on my ancient Powermac 7300 and my cheap 
portable CD player but gets spit out without even an error (I've 
checked the logs) on my Powerbook. Strangely enough, my Ayre D-1x 
high-end DVD player has the same spitting reaction.

Now this particular CD is an enhanced CD. The enhanced part (which is 
just an extra data session) doesn't show up on the PM 7300, however. I 
tried another copy of that CD and got the exact same problems. Ciao,
