Has anyone experimented this?

Some recently manufactured american cd’s are having finishing problems. 
A friend bought the new Travelling Wilburys collection cd/dvd box, and 
his copy is a clear example of that. On the external edge of the audio 
discs, just where the ‘silver’ part ends – close to the transparent 
plastic edge – the silver part has imperfections. As if it was not 
‘glued’ perfectly well. This is the third or fourth different cd I see 
with this problem. It doesn’t affect playing and you have to look close 
to notice (it’s on the label side, not on the playing side). But I think 
it shouldn’t happen.

Picky customers are starting to complain. Although cd prices may seem 
relatively cheap if compared to the absurd downloading costs, it’s 
undeniably an old technology and should cost less. But nothing justifies 
bad manufacturing standards.
