  I have CDSs I burned in the days of the 286s that still read just fine
(I even have a few 5 1/4 floppies which are still alive)The thing is I
NEVER use bargain brands of plain label media. I use only archival grade
media and that does tend to last.
  That said I prefer to check the disks periodically and duplicate before
there is any data loss. My check involves writing to the HD and checking
the files. any error gets a file recover, then a burn to new media.
  Aside from a sudden death of a hard drive which was not recoverable
despite high level recovery software (I recently lost all the cat models
on remote HD due not having moved them off to DVD yet) I have had FAR
less reliability issues with archived media than with HD failure.
