Last I heard (which was a year or so ago) DVDs were not a reliable way to store data long-term -- or, at least, many brands/makes of DVDs were not and some might be, but it's not clear which was which. Has this situation changed? If not, it essential to keep the older storage formats. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
