from http://www.cd-info.com/CDIC/Technology/CD-R/FAQ01.html#[1-1] Subject: [1-2] Are they identical to normal CDs? The CDs you buy in a store are pressed from a mold. CD-Rs are burned with a laser. They look different (green, gold, or blue instead of silver), they're less tolerant of extreme temperatures and sunlight, and don't last as long. (But they still last a very long time.) ______________________________________________________________________________ . . ..a n a g r a m a t c a t s d o t u c s c d o t e d u.. . . . . ..h y p e r t e x t t r a s f e r p r o t o c o l.. . . ..u s e r s d o t c w n e t d o t c o m s l a s h a n a g r a m..
