Crunchy regulator?

So funny thing. When I was leaving work, I noticed the car sounded more "open", so I opened and closed the passenger door (had a coworker ride to lunch with me). Then I hear the glass grabbing along the roof.

Short story: When the door handle is pulled the window tries to drop. I can see the minor movement, I can hear the motor working, the interior lights engage, but the window won't drop. However, if I open the roof the window goes down as normal, and works as it should. It works correct with the switch, and when the door is open, still leaves the appropriate gap to allow proper closure (and zips up shut). It just can't seem to drop when the handle is pulled.

I am getting a little crunching on occasion when the window is closing (almost closed). So I'm figuring it's the regulator in need of replacement. What say you guys?
