Can anyone confirm that glue failure is actually a problem and DVDs are delaminating all over the place. I have subjected 15 brands of DVD-R discs, 7 brands of DVD-RW discs, and about 75 DVD movie discs to accelerated aging conditions. The total amount of discs tested was close to 200. Not one disc delaminated.
Delamination should not be a problem on single-sided DVDs and I doubt that there is serious consideration of two-sided blanks for archiving (even DVD-RAM). Perhaps another term is intended here, but I am not aware of "lamination" in production of single-sided recordable DVDs.
