Yes I have had the same problem but in my 2004 Nissan Sentra. I am now on my fourth cd player and the dealer believes the failure is in the player because I played a burned cd. I think the "new" players are refurbished.

Yeah, I'd like a nice aftermarket stereo, but also it would be nice to hear news of better service from Nissan, since that attitude carries over into much more important issues as well.

the aux jack does work ok, the volume isnt very good tho, alot of owners ive talked to have added a pie in-line amp to the aux jack to make it louder

I don't see how the format of music on a cd can cause the player to fail.  If the damn things are failing and you have documented it in their service department that they are being replaced and still failing then you can carry this beyond the standard warranty.

Remember one thing.  The individual parts carry their own warranty.  If you take a 10 year old car into a dealership and he replaces a part and it fails within the parts warranty period, then the dealer is responsible for the part and possibly the labor to replace it, unless the failure is caused by something other than the part itself.

So, as long as you keep having the part replaced as it fails then a warranty will take care of it.  I don't know what the warranty on a Nissan stereo is, but you might ask.
