Every single one of my burned DVDs from more than a few years back is completely unreadable.Update: I missed the very important line about M-DISC. This is critical.

ooterness@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are there any common household items or products that you think are designed incredibly poorly?English8·7 months agoIt’s usually because of cheap electrolytic capacitors. Letting a $10+ item die because they were too cheap to pay $0.25 instead of $0.15 for a properly rated component.
All I see is “Crush your enemies, see them driven before you”.
