Is polycarbonate (the plastic in CDs) recyclable? I understand the wastefulness of CD-Rs. I save all my old backup CDs -- I keep a box at work and one in my car should something disasterous happen at home. Incremental backups won't use that many CDs once you make the initial full backup. I just haven't had much luck with CD-RWs.
