[chat] CD-R media


Hi All,

	Am wondering what other users experiences are with CD-R media
	and long term data integrity ?

	I have some 2-3 yr old CD-Rs containing data but have too many
	read errors to be of any use now (and some totally unreadable).

	How does one determine what CD-R is going to last beyond a couple
	of years ? One wonders if it is worth considering CD-R/CD-RW as 
	a worthwhile media for backups ?

	Thanks.

Regards,
Raj
