How well do 90-minute and 99-minute CD-R blanks work?

(2004/03/04) Small quantities of 90-minute and 99-minute blanks have appeared, but since their introduction in late 2000 they haven't become as commonplace as other lengths. Indications are that many recorders and some software don't really work with the longer discs. The discs have capacity of roughly 791MB (90 min) and 870MB (99 min).

However, all the capacity in the world won't help you if you can't read the disc after you write it. If you're interested in larger but incompatible discs, your best bet is probably DVD-R. Other alternatives, such as DD-R/DD-RW (section (2-37)), ML (section (2-39)), and GigaRec (section (2-46)) never really took off.

CD time stamps are two digits (binary coded decimal, in case you were wondering), so exceeding 99 minutes isn't possible. You could, in theory, declare there to be 99 seconds in a minute and 99 sectors per second, but that would break just about everything that tried to read one. The limits of the specifications are being pushed at 80 ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
