Blu-ray disc lifespans range from 5 to 50 years, CCI data shows

According to Canadian Conservation Institute research, cheap BD-R discs typically last only five to 10 years, while higher-quality BD-Rs using silicon-copper alloy or gold layers can last 10 to 20 years. Rewritable BD-RE discs can last considerably longer, potentially 20 to 50 years, depending on manufacturing quality and storage conditions.
