We all know that tape formats degrade over time, but what about CDs? I've heard of cases in which CDs actually fell apart.
I want to know this because, before they deteriorate any further, I'd eventually like to archive all my old cassette-based recordings on some other more durable medium. Cds seem to be the safest route. Can anyone offer further enlightenment on this issue? I'm thinking about purchasing a CD-R (not a computer-based model, though, because I don't have access to my own computer).
Thanks in advance...
