Re: Retrospect/Retroactive Records: which are CDr?

I guess it's a matter of perception. I don't care owning non-functionable objects. If it was to listen to back-ups, I would n't have bought it at the first place. There's also balance in there. Backups are essential, no matter if you intend on listening to them or not. I guess I only have like thre...

Re: Retrospect/Retroactive Records: which are CDr?

The lifespan of CD-R is rather limited. I've heard about an average of 12 years. This article says 10 years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD-R#Lifespan One way or another, I'm 42 years old and I plan to listen to metal until my death which I predict will come in approximately 50 years :mrgreen: . ...

Re: BBTAD- ACID- HOOKED ON METAL LP

The only reissue of theirs that I own is Threshold's 1993 EP, and it's a CD-R.

I've been told that Jim Barraza will not be involved in this reunion, as Rober Garven and Tim Baker are not interested in working with him anymore. I know that Greg Lindstrom is most likely involved. Not sure about who will fill in for bass.
