Keep your fingers crossed. 

I've had serious trouble with a whole bunch of CDRs containing my
back-ups of film scan data. They were stored in specially made CD paper
jackets, the kind commonly used in books or commercial software
packages. These jackets, bought from a local CD production company, had
self-adhesive flaps and it appears something evaporating from this
adhesive has damaged the CDs in the jacket to the point that they've
become unredable. All this after about four years of storage. There was
a distinct brownish colouring of the CDs in the section whch had been
next to the flap.
