Well, I've had some success getting my game to work, so I thought I'd share.
I called the retailer from whom I purchased Reach two weeks ago, to check if they'd had other complaints and to see if they would take the disc back if it was the. Problem. The lady on the other end of the phone, Erin (or Aaron if it was a guy with a high voice), mentioned that it might be something to do with the save game.
Having installed the game to the hard drive previously, I uninstalled it, moved the save game and files that I wanted to keep to a memory stick, then removed the hard drive, just to be sure.
I rebooted the Xbox, put the disc in, and hey presto! I've got the game back. I turned it off, stuck the hard drive in sans save games, and it worked again. Then, to test it even further, I put the memory stick in and restarted. Again, it worked fine. I've yet to test the freshly copied saves to hard drive version of the process, but it seems to be all good.
I'm not sure how much mileage you'll get from this yourselves, but hopefully there is a little light at the end of the tunnel.
Cheers,
