If we eventually live the dystopian bread-trading future, it won't be a guy with a stack of DVDs that is king. It will be the guy with a NAS full of every Oscar-winning movie for the last forty years.
- sumtechguy 3y agoI am one of those movie hoarders (approaching 2k of the things). This weekend I found out about the 2007-2009 disc rot. One particular factory was making the plastic wrong. The layers are delaminating from each other. So now I probably will be mentally compelled to go back thru all of my discs and find the ones that no longer work. Very annoying. Seems to be particular batches of WB and criterion.
- mdrzn 3y agoSearching "2007-2009 disc rot" mainly links back to this comment, is there any news I can read about it?
- sumtechguy 3y agoI found it on youtube (which i do not have access to at this moment). There are several videos on dvd disc rot.
