I guess it might be good idea for classrooms, studios or labs wanting
to save on ink costs. There is probably a novelty value while they are
a new technology.
Now that I think of it, the disk rot concern is from adhesives and
inks. I would think that once the disk is etched there would be no
potential for further decay. Archival use might be what the developers
had in mind.

The laser etching is called LightScribe and is only relatively new.
It's in a lot of the display laptops at work now. I don't think it's
really all that great, it's only a monochrome image, is very slow to
do and the discs aren't very readily available.

Who also has a Canon MP800 that does a great job on discs.
