This was always my theory as well; since so many were kept in entertainment cabinets with little to no air flow. Granted, it has been shown/admitted that the manufacturer had used a cheap part inside that was prone to failure under repeated high heat, but still.

I only had one die out and it was the disc reader of all things.

Update: Beaten to the punch by people with better memories than I.
