I have audio CDs from 1990 that play just fine and look to be in tip-top condition. Not so much CDs I have burned in the 2000s, they seem to fade, clearly a different manufacturing process. However, based on my older audio CDs, it seems that, if manufacturers want to produce quality, they certainly can.
