Thanks for the input Bob. Just hearing all kinds of stuff about there being
a lot of difference in DVD Media and wondering what folks are recommending.
Some are saying that certain DVD media isn't good for more than six months
and others stating that certain DVD media is only good for coasters (that's
drink glass coasters) and worried that our archive for our clients won't be
good a few years from now.
Additional thoughts?
