since I bought at Costco, I can return them if they don't last as long as I think they should last. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anthony J.

Sorry, I've never seen or thought to look for expiration dates on disc packaging. Is this actually written on the packaging? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, February 08, 2011 16:23 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: How old is your oldest, viable DVD? I have burned a lot of 40 year dvds that I bought at Costco. I have not yet had a chance to test whether they really do work after 40 years, but I have that on my to-do list ----- Original Message ----- From: "G Gambill" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, February 08, 2011 12:43 PM Subject: Re: How old is your oldest, viable DVD? I have heard for some years now that the life of CDs and DVDs is in the 6, 7, maybe 8 year range.I don't know if that means you can get eight years shelf life out of a Burned DVD even if you leave it in the back window of your car, in Phoenix, for eight years. A couple of years ago I bought some 50 year DVD at Frt's Electronics. Burned a few things to them, haven't tested that 50 years yet. your mileage may vary.
