New DVD & Blu-ray Video Discs Become Defective Over Time
By Paul Rudoff on Dec. 15, 2023 at 11:55 PM in Home Video, Public Service Articles
I have been a collector of optical discs for over 30 years now. I started off with audio CDs in the early 1990s, then acquired Laserdiscs in the mid-1990s, before moving on to DVDs in 1997. I remember going into Blockbuster Video at that time and asking them if they had DVDs, and none of the employees knew what I was talking about! The very first DVDs I bought were Beetlejuice and Mars Attacks!, bought together from Laser Exchange, the mail order company I used to buy Laserdiscs from. In 2009, I started collecting Blu-rays, with the first one being Monsters vs. Aliens, which I got for $5 upon release from Best Buy as part of a special deal with their Insignia Blu-ray player... and I got a free B.O.B. plushie with purchase of the movie! My 4K UHD disc collection started in late 2019 with the purchase of a 4K player on Black Friday.
In short, I have a collection of THOUSANDS of optical discs obtained over a 30+ year period. Most of my discs, even those CDs bought in the early 1990s, still play without an issue. However, I have found that some of my DVD and Blu-ray video discs have become defective over the course of the past decade.
