A ‘stone-like’ optical disc that lasts forever’ | KurzweilAI

A ‘stone-like’ optical disc that lasts forever’ | KurzweilAI: "Start-up Millenniata and LG plan to soon release a new optical disc and read/write player that will store movies, photos or any other data forever on any current DVD or Blu-ray player.

Millenniata calls the product the M-Disc, and claims you can dip it in liquid nitrogen and then boiling water without harming it. It also has a U.S. Department of Defense study backing up the resiliency of its product, compared to other leading optical disc competitors.

Once the mark is made, it’s permanent, a company spokesperson said. It can be read on any machine that can read a DVD. Also, it’s backward compatible: it doesn’t require a special machine to read it — just a special machine to write it.
