Yeah, it seems to be limited to the cheap shite discs. When I started burning discs as a kid I just had whatever spindle pops grabbed, and when/where he grew up - "Made in Japan" = good, so all of my oldest burns are either those DARK ass 4x Verbatim discs or Taiyo Yuden discs. 0 failures on a few hundred ~26 year old CDs.
