CD-DVD Disk Labels

[Rod Speed]

... I have to wonder if you've ever seen a writeable DVD?

Yep, use them all the time, thanks.

Pretty obvious just looking at one.

Odd, mine dont look any different to CDRs on that stuff,
and thats a number of different brand writeable DVDs too.

 

[Jan Alter]

Dont need any more than that, you pathetic excuse for a bullshit artist.

Rod-
Sometimes you've given some reasonable responses to questions, but with this
one you've pushed the envelope. Take a breather and review what was being
said. Kony pointed out that there were two polycarbonate layers on the DVD.

With DVDs, this is not an issue because there is a

polycarbonate layer on top as well as on the bottom.

Your response

Wrong.

I pointed you to a website that described the DVD as having two
polycarbonate layers.

You responded that this referred to dual layer disks. I wrote back that it
referred to both single and dual layer disks.

Afterwards you said that that this information wasn't applicable to
writeable DVDs. In fact the information was about writeable DVDs.

And your final remark

More fool you

All this simply gives at least me, a loss of credibility to you dealing with
the facts. What is equally irritating is that you go about it in an
omniscient manner that tells me your full of yourself.

So I was wrong.

Hardly seems possible. Does this mean we get cheated out of a month long
'is not/is too' thread with no one reading it but the is not/is tooers?

If you lightly scrape the top of a CD-R, you can flake off that top
layer. You will be able to see through the disc in that spot. If you
do the same to a DVD-R, you will mar the top surface, but the recordable
layer remains intact. That can be confirmed by attempting a validated
write to both discs.

Also, if you hold both discs up to the light, you should be able to see
that the DVD-R is two fairly thick clear layers of polycarbonate that
sandwiches a thin layer. The CD-R is one thicker layer that has a thin
lamina on its top side.

If you'd like digital photos I can attempt them, but I'm not sure if my
camera or my expertise is up to the job.

 

[Rod Speed]

So I was wrong. I'm almost never wrong. Ask anybody.

Never ever could bullshit its way out of a wet paper bag.

Nope, you're so stupid you cant even pick the most primitive faking.

 

[Rod Speed]

Sometimes you've given some reasonable responses to questions,

Hell of a lot more often than you have in fact.

but with this one you've pushed the envelope.
Nope.

Take a breather and review what was being said.

No need, I know what he said.

Kony pointed out that there were two polycarbonate layers on the DVD.

Duh. You quite sure you aint one of those rocket scientist fellas ?

Your response

Pity thats a dual layer DVD and not even a writeable DVD. Try again.

You responded that this referred to dual layer disks. I wrote back that it referred to both single
and dual layer disks.

Afterwards you said that that this information wasn't applicable to writeable DVDs.

No I didnt, I just rubbed your nose in the FACT that that TABLE
you included is completely irrelevant to what was being discussed.

In fact the information was about writeable DVDs.

Wrong again.

And your final remark

All this simply gives at least me, a loss of credibility to you dealing with the facts.

You have always been, and always will be, completely and utterly irrelevant.

What is equally irritating is that you go about it in an omniscient manner that tells me your full
of yourself.

Leaves you full of pompous shit for dead thanks.

So I was wrong. I'm almost never wrong. Ask anybody.

Your first sentence is certainly right.

Your second sentence is certainly wrong.

Anybody who has read as many of your posts as I
have is likely to favor your first sentence.

Luck;
Ken

Rod Speed is right !
Many markers contain alcohol, which dissolves plastic composites. That's
the reason why special CD/DVD markers are available.
Concerning the labels, there's another important potential issue. Many
CD/DVD readers become very hot, and this dissolves the glue of the label,
resulting in air bubbles between label and disc. In that case of course,
the disc becomes unreadable. I' ve encountered this problem with many
label brands, except one, which is Neato. They're more expensive, but work
fine. The best solution is to print directly on the disc (Canon or Epson
inkjet printers). However, be careful with the inks you use, as many
(replacement) inks can smear, even after a few months.

Much of what you say is true, some of it is a little
exaggerated but technically true. But Ron Speed is
totally wrong if he really believes DVDs don't have
a polycarb layer on both sides.

Luck;
Ken

Can too.

Never could backup monosyllabic responses with actual facts.
