CD slow to load & fail to eject

OK, it's only been a week and I've got one issue with the CD player (10). I loaded 6 MP3 loaded CD's into the system. It was slow loading them. It took about 5 minutes; maybe 4. It seamed to take for ever compared to my Ford 6CD changer. Once loaded, everything was OK. Over the last couple days the system just stops saying after playing a bunch of tracks. It stops at track one. Switching a disc might solve it; but that can take about 4-5 minutes to shift CD's. I'm not sure if it's because there are tons of folders and there's a limitation, or bad recordings, or what? So tonight I burned a new CD with the data sorted into just the album content (10-12 folders). I went to eject one CD, and it sits there. I spent 20 minutes trying to get any of them or all (holding down eject) with no luck.

Has anyone else seen this? Using Memorex CD-R's 700MB/80min burned with evil Windows Media.

I have radio 10. Yesterday I went to play a CD, the message said CD starting and immediately went back to the radio. It did this for several tries. I left the turned it off for a while. Turned it back on and haven't had the problem since. I hope ot doesn't return.

I took it out today, waited for it to start playing, then ejected the active CD. No problem...Inserted my new CD and away it played. Must be temperture related or just tempermental.

Go figure
