CD Eating Fungus?

On Mon, 18 Jun 2001, Marvin wrote: Well, considering that old camera lenses often suffer from fungi, just as mildew can attack floppies and tapes, it would surprise me not that CDs can become afflicted with it as well. I wonder if only the aluminum CDs are the problem, or if those gold CDs from Kodak are also affected. Does anyone recall the audiophile debates several years ago that pertained to something called "CD rot," using that as one reason why vinyl records were superior for long-term storage. I thought that the "CD rot" they spoke of only had to do with disintegration of the plastic and then oxitation of the metal layer. -- Copyright (C) 2001 R. D.
