    it did it when it was on a stable floor yes. and it does it on normal cd's

    it mainly does it at the start of the cd, first few songs, either it isnt happening or i'm not noticing it later on the cd's, quite strange.

    EDIT: It does skip in the middle of cd's, just doesnt seem to as much

    That sounds like something todo with the regulation of the motor either that or the motor is burning out. If its expensive try taking it to a repair shop, if not unless it clears itself up probably start looking at new CD players

    Fixed. It's most likely the laser that's playing up. Not too cost effective to repair afaik
