And more specifically "pressed" discs, not those you can burn at home.
Those you can burn at home relies on a chemical reaction which will degrade after several years, faster if exposed to sunlight.

Unlike traditional optical media, which utilize dyes that can break down over time, data stored on an M DISC is engraved on a patented inorganic write layer – it will not fade or deteriorate. This unique engraving process renders these archival grade discs practically impervious to environmental exposure, including light, temperature and humidity. ISO/IEC 16963 standard longevity tests have proven the durability of M DISC technology, and it withstood rigorous testing by the US Department of Defense. Based on ISO/IEC 16963 testing, M DISC media has a projected lifetime of several hundred years. https://www.verbatim.com/subcat/optical-media/m-disc/#:~:text=Verbatim%20M%20DISC%E2%84%A2%20optical,will%20not%20fade%20or%20deteriorate https://www.verbatim.com/subcat/optical-media/m-disc/#:~:tex....
