Where do you keep your backup CDs?
Any idea if a fridge will be okay to store cds in?

i recently saw a feature on TV news investigating the original claims of long term CD durability...
a lot of old cd collectors (20+ years) are seeing signs of early breakdown.. moisture gets in under the crystal and it gets all flakey and crumbles off.
not good.

he prolly suggested a fride cause that's the best place to store film.
Same thing goes with audio reels i think.Cd are different though. Don't know what the best place to store 'em for long durations is. I'd just recommend a nice dry spot where theres not much fluctuation in temperature.
