the 50yr rot was for printed disks like music/videos/programs, the 10 or 15 was for burned media that uses a different tech. Still have another 25ish years before I can debunk that, I have a little over 100 music cds from different bands that I acquired over the years, but the oldest I have so far is from 1999 or 2k.

That makes sense. But I've got a wallet of burned CDs from the 90s that put the question to that 15 year timeline.

And these discs? They have not been treated well.
