That is why "real" CD players (not ripping, that's entirely different from
playing) can do error *concealment* in addition to correction. As long as
they can track the spiral of pits and lands, even if they can't correct all
the read errors, they can conceal enough of them that you won't notice
until the unreadable area is so large that it defeats even the block
interleaving. At least that's the theory, and, as we know, everything works
in theory...
