what is this nonsense about 1's becoming 2's? 2's literally don't even exist in a binary system. as soon as 2's exist that's trinary... and that's when the robots take over.

To avoid losing data, make sure you use these disc protectors at
d-skin.com
(I don't have enough posts to provide a link, sorry)
These will help keep your dvds from getting any data corrupting viruses that your player may have gotten from rented dvds or borrowed dvds. If you are going to let people borrow your DVDs or if you take them to a friend's house, you definitely need to wrap them before sticking any disc in an unfamiliar player.
I make sure to wrap every disc I have to prevent this. You can't be too careful in this day and age.

If someone else wants to post a link to the site, please do so.

Over the years I have learned many valuable lessons in the care and upkeep for DVDs
1-When loaning to friends and family, make sure you use rubbers. DVDs can act very rambunctous in new environments and are prone to pick up venerial rot. Use rubber holders from the fine folks at Trojan Inc.
2-Don't mix DVDs and Drugs-I've been told by friends that they have used their DVDs as coasters for their drug stash. After awhile the DVD playback is noticably sluggish and speech is somewhat slurred.
3-Store DVDs in a north/south position-All this chatter about upright or flat is missing the point. The earth's electro-magnetic field travels between the north and south pole continuously. Aligning your DVD with this flow prevents the field from cutting across the data stored on the disc. The EM field has the capability to eventually corrupt the data if you store it perpendicular to its flow
