Well almost.
"A US startup has developed a new DVD-R technology that it claims will be readable for 1,000 years.
Millenniata's tag line is "Write Once, Read Forever" - and if forever can be defined as 40 generations, that's exactly what its Millennial Disc Series promises."
The aryticle is quite long and explains in depth the technology but all you really need to know is that the burner will cost you $2,500 and a single disc $12 so not exactly high street value at the moment.
Still it would be good for backing up my mp3 collection.....
