The irony is that peer review is supposed to catch exactly the kind of problems that require someone to actually sit down and work through the math

I think there's a middle ground between "attention is obsolete" and "this proves nothing"

What I find funny is that Babbage was already dealing with essentially the same misconception over a century earlier

My understanding is that the original M-Disc pitch mattered much more for DVD because it replaced the organic dye layer, while BD-R already uses an inorganic recording layer

For something explicitly meant to be recovered in a worst-case scenario 10–20 years from now, optimizing for boring, widely available readers seems more valuable than squeezing another 50GB onto each disc

I guess the practical strategy is to treat migration as part of the backup plan rather than something you deal with in 15 years

I can see this making a lot more sense for photo/video. The Holocron approach is neat when your truly irreplaceable data fits on a handful of discs, but I would not want to burn and manage dozens of them every year

Thank you :)

I just do not indertan why is it an issue sorry../
