A couple of conservation questions: Our laboratory director came to me last week. He is starting to digitize his old maps on DVDs.
He ran across some information that said that the lifetime of DVDs is only 5 years. Is that true? If so, what is the estimated lifespan of the gold plated DVDs? Finally, is the lifespan of DVDs shorter than CDs? Thanks, Susan +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Susan Fishman-Armstrong Laboratory Coordinator Antonio J.
