Knox County Public Library (Knoxville, TN) now has over 250 Warner Archive titles in circulation dating back from around 2010 and we haven't had many problems. We do occasionally resurface the discs using our RTI Eco-Senior or Eco-Pro to keep them in good condition.

I have run by several titles from this series and all of them appear to be DVD-Rs created on demand, which frankly is a concern of mine for playability and lifespan of the discs. Are my concerns unfounded or should we stay away from titles in this series? Thanks in advance! -- Josh Moorman Head Librarian New York Film Academy - Los Angeles Robert K.
