The CD Saga gets worse

On my stereo at home it plays fine (although it doesn't work on my Windows computer) but put it into my girlfriend's DVD player and it reports itself to have 17 tracks even though the cover says it only has 15. I hadn't looked closely at the reported track count on the DVD player and just played the disk. After the peaceful ending of the last track on the CD i.e. the 15th, the speakers just erupted in loud white noise. I suppose that was the Windows "autorun" software being played...

P.S. I recently created a nerdy privacy-respecting tool called When Will I Run Out Of Money? It's available for free if you want to check it out.
