<VV> 2 - 5 year cds

[Louis Armer]

>Hi Ken, How do you determine the "shelf life" and what can be done 
>to extend it? Does this also apply to
   DVD's? I have a CD of  pictures from the NECC Beaverun race days, 
Iowa Mini Covnention and the DACC
from last year. The NECC was a professional photographer but the 
others were provided by personal friends.
