I wonder if older CD-R discs have long lifespans because they were made a lot better to begin with. Good CD-Rs are becoming harder to find around here as the cheap-n-nasty ones take over the market. People buy the cheap ones without realising that they probably won't last more than a few months. Cheers, - Dave http://www.digistar.com/~dmann/
