online shop is quite informative.

thanks

No CDR can be considered archival in the strictest use of the word.
plastic CDs are not either. You have to go to an actual glass pressed
CD. ONe that you can replate if you want to read it a thousand
years from today.

Isn't that the same thing with plastic CDRs? I mean, the main reason
plastic CDRs fail is due to the plastic layer being scratched. The data
is probably intact. You would then simply take the danaged CDR to one of
those machines which shaves a bit of the plastic layer off, RIP the data
to the computer again and make another CDR.

No. The archival quality depends largely on the dye layer lasting
properties. Scratches on the front are not such a big deal, but scratches
on the back (though to the dye layer) can be fatal.
