This article is intended to deal only with the specific type of CD discolouring that was caused by a manufacturing error at PDO UK and Opti.Me.S Italy. Other types of CD decay that include colour changes or signs of corrosion, such as bronzing caused by adhesive labels, improper storage, exposure to chemical fumes, etc., should be dealt with either on the CD rot page or on related pages. --Hprill 14:26, 7 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Placed a fact tag. Needs to be checked, current reference is probably in error. --Janke | Talk 08:08, 11 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Reference 8 now lands on a loan scam company page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.200.65.239 (talk) 13:20, 28 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

The main article has an unproven statement that "The problem is also prevalent with many discs that were manufactured by Nimbus during the late 1980s to the mid 1990s.[citation needed]" I have over 3000 CDs, many being manufactured by Nimbus and NONE made by Nimbus have ever had any problems. The only ones I've had were the PDO UK ones and a solitary PDO Germany disc. Also, there is another rarer CD/DVD proble known as 'fogging'. This is a manufacturing issue caused by a chemical reaction between the packaging tray and the CD/DVD coating. If left, it can prevent play. This residue can usually be cleaned/removed, although to prevent re-occurrence it is recommended to store the disc elsewhere. I think this issue needs to be mentioned?
