i would say there is noise from playing pirated CD simply because those are pirated CDs....play with wut player also 'bising'
especially with a good player the sound is cleaner n clearer n u will notice the noise more. makes sense?

for sure larhh

rm50+- original CD and rm5+- pasar malam CD sure got difference geh larhh..

but too bad that i'm not tat rich 2 buy all songs 100% original.. he!he! mostly sourced from internet. there r times tat i think they r better than those in pasar malam..

so.. in my case.. better buy a HU tat can play MP3 well enuff
