When it comes to optical media, specifically CDs and DVDs, not all discs are created equal. From the day CDs arrived, I just thought that a CD was a CD and a DVD was a DVD. I also assumed that it either worked or it didn't. In addition, I also thought "that if it did work, it would probably last forever (or at least for my lifetime)."
That was what I thought for years until someone educated me to the fact that there really is a difference in the quality of discs available.
If you think of a grading scale like in high school, an excellent grade would be A+ (A plus) being the highest score or grade you could achieve. Receiving an F would be a failing grade, being the lowest score you could receive.
