I have seen conflicting data on this. Some people have expereinced failures
after as few as 10 write/erase cycles. There are posts about this in the
various dvd newsgroups.

Also, some people have experienced significant signal loss on rewriteabe
dvd's after month or years, so this apparently should not be considered a
permanant media.

Your mileage may vary.....
