I don't think it's lying, it's just that Sony isn't particularly known
for high quality optical media.  Check the country of origin. If it's
India, Malaysia or China the problem is probably the media, particularly
if it's been sitting around for awhile.  If it was made in Japan or
Taiwan, however, I'd continue troubleshooting.
