In Reply to: Laserdisk quality is different but not always lesser. posted by Auricle on July 19, 2004 at 13:15:07:
In my 14 year experience with 900 laserdiscs I have encounered ONE case of laser rot. I have never had any proble with CDs (500+) or DVDs (600+).I don't have any DTS LDs but as I posted the Dolby Digital LD/DVD comparisons I have done come out in favor of the laserdisc.
Follow Ups:
Cases of CD rot and DVD rot are beginning to show up (see the link). People actually shave the edge of CD/DVDs to make them true. Guess what? If one is too aggressive it violates the seal and "rot" begins. Or the disks had quality control problems in the factory. The link to an article on CNN appears in the thread.Like you, I have not suffered from it, but I know people who have.
Cheers for now.
