I would thing the deterioration of the plastic would take a few million years though.
Poor manufacturing and poor quality. Unlike CDs, most DVDs are imbedded in the plastic rather than laid on top, however, as it turns out, some DVDs are laid on top. The top layer can then corrode and the layered ones can sometimes split. This is information I gleaned from the net.
I cannot see any defects, even with good lighting and magnification. Whether I can see or not is a moot point as the sundry of DVD players I have do.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
