  I've been pulling data from old CD's and DVD's.  The failure rate (physical!) 
on pre-2004 TDK brand CD-R's is ludicrous.

  About one in three have gaps from the foil flaking.

  So if you have old CDs that *might* be TDK brand, best check them now and 
recover what you can from them.

  These were NOT subjected to any extremes in temperature, humidity, etc.
