Hi David,

I wonder, too ... but then DVD's have proved a more reliable medium than CD's for archival storage. Time will tell.


I haven't looked at the physical structure of a writable DVD but if it is the same a writable CD, then scratching the "top" side will destroy a DVD as easily as a CD. I don't think the technology between the 2 is different enough for me to say one will be more reliable than the other. I treat both as unsuitable for archival storage.

I though it worth knowing about... even if the product is not yet available.


Interesting yes though it is still a long way from product. :)

Regards,
Spencer
