Thanks for your concern. The particular issue I am having is not related to the media I am using, but is a software and/or copy protection issue. However I will keep the longevity aspect in mind - although I can always make another backup if the media eventually quits working.
I will look up the blank media forum, though - I've actually had some trouble with some Sony DVD-Rs lately (which I use for backups when I don't intend to use Clearplay or when the DVD doesn't require a DL disc for a clone backup).
