I've noticed that pressed discs work better than burned discs, but thats what backups are for... assuming you can get a working original that is...

Yeah burned discs wore out much earlier but it depended a lot on the brand. Fry’s great quality brand (or whatever it was called) did not last long. But my memorex and verbatim still work fine after 30 years of mistreatment!
