Er yes, but my point was (not elaborated very well) that with higher speed
and higher density archival storage, it's possible to copy data from lots
of CDRs to a lot less of some other medium - like DVD-RAM or some other
future medium.  It would be nice never to have to copy these things at all,
I agree.  I probably won't be around in 50 years time to worry about the
error rates on my CDRs anyhow.
