Which makes beta Ray more prone to damage and rot. A good scratch will kill
a Beta Ray whil a DVD will play just fine.
The Beta Ray movies I rent from BB are just as scratched the fuck up as any
other disk. At least 1/2 I rent don't play.
Extra coating is good for kids I guess..still does not help much if at all.
nothing beats just plain old common sense. none of my DVD's/Games or
practically anything are scratched.
