This indicates that indeed your magazine DVD copy is broken. Can you
check, after that error occurs, if "dmesg" shows "read errors" on
/dev/sr0? Are there any visible "holes" or "blank/dirty spots" on the
DVD surface? If one of these is the case, you can probably get a free
replacement of the defective DVD(s) from Linux Magazine.
