For what it's worth, I've had ONE (1) commercial CD fail since 1986, and that was due to a manufacturing error, according to CBS/Sony who promptly replaced it. Another one, from Time-Warner, doesn't mount in some drives and I've never been able to find a way to get it replaced and it's out of print a long time now anyway. That's it. Collection now totals 5000+ commercially-manufactured CD's. Oh and also several hundred commercial software CDROMs, never a problem with any of them. So I conclude it's actually a very hearty medium.

You are quite fortunate. Bronzing has taken quite a few of my discs and one brand has had 100% failure from ink printing through. Bronzing afflicted several major classical labels, but the Nuova Era ink problem ended the label - no replacements.
