BD-R is only plagued by delamination, which is gradual and can be countered by ~yearly visual inspections looking for delamination combined with some redundancy

- verytrivial 8y agoM-Disk is a somewhat pricey but apparently legit archival format that appeared (from my point of view) just as the DVD/Blu-ray external writers market collapsed. I now have an external HDD in a portable fire-safe that I know could go from 100% working to 0% working at any moment. The thing I liked about optical is you could have some hope of recovering most data as the media degraded, and basically all with judicious use of ECC. It's a shame.
