I used to watch discs on my PS3 almost exclusively even after I had access to other players/PS4, but it just runs too hot (energy hog) and too loud for it to be practical now. Plus, the red laser went out on it so it does not play DVDs anymore. 

Is this a common problem of PS3 consoles? The red laser of my PS3 Fat also doesn't work anymore, so it doesn't read DVD movies or PS2 game discs.
