Mine have been in the garage for the past few years. I just recently brought them in my room and copied all the stuff I need off of them and threw them away. I had about 30. Had no problems copying anything. A lot of them had some scratches and dust and shit on them so I had to clean them off with water.
It seems all the problems happen at the burn stage. More or less with different drives, but it's still a slow, painful process backing up to DVDs.
