Hi There:

You asked

>Does any one know anything about the life expectancy of a CD?? 

I get involved in a lot of CD duplication packages in the pharmacuetical 
industry and spoke with one of my vendors.  His opinion is that if you treat 
them with respect, i.e. don't store them in a damp basement, or drag them 
along your desk and knock 'em about, they should last indefinitely.  If you 
are less than careful with them, expect 2-5 years.

Hope this helps....
