Amazon is a retailer, not a manufacturer/studio. They don't have spare discs and they're not setup to swap out discs from one returned set for another. You'll need to return the full set to Amazon. However, they usually have long return times and generally ship out the replacement before receiving the original back (you agree to be charged for the replacement if you don't return the original when you initiate the return). You can wait until you get the replacement, swap out just the items you need to, and then send back a complete set.

From the main thread:

My Fellowship Extended Part 1 disc seems to have some kind of defect preventing read past the first 160MB on disc. Nothing visible to my eye. Hobbit 1-3 ripped fine, Two Towers is fine so far. Frustrating.

As Mike has pointed out a few times already, new discs often have an oily film on them which is invisible to the naked eye. Cleaning your discs with mild soap and some water will most likely fix your problem. (the game of thrones discs had the same problem)

Charlie - any luck on this? I purchased the theatrical 4k set on ebay and the discs are flawless but MakeMKV will not get passed about 70% on Two Towers. Sounds like that's what happened to you?

Me too. I got the box set yesterday and Two Towers theatrical and part 2 extended will not rip. I'm guessing they are bad discs. I'm planning to return to BB I hope I can get them to let me just swap the 2 discs that are bad.

I received the following errors while trying to rip Two Towers (FOTR ripped fine)
