Dude, the write layer is NOT exposed to the touch... ever. It is
under a layer of polycarbonate plastic. The laser writes through the
poly plate and impinges on the polymer layer INSIDE the disc. That IS
the Tandy design.
You HAVE to be trolling at this point. There RAE NO writable optical
discs where the polymer write layer is directly exposed as the bottom
surface. It is ALWAYS under a plate of clear polycarbonate (some have
color, but that is all show).
