I had everything out for pics or to reorganize, they were fine. They don't just go bad all of a sudden, and certainly not this soon

so you know what to look for?

you tested them to make sure they worked?

no?

yeah.

your other post up there makes it sound like it's because the glue just falls apart from wear

that's not what it is. that doesn't do anything to cause or prevent disc rot.

disc rot is literally what its name is: rot. the glue literally starts rotting.

Ugh. If you don't get it then don't bother. The glue has nothing to do with discs exploding. It's just there to hold the layers. The plastic and the data is still intact. Usage does not put stress on the glue. Moral of the story is if you had a disc break then there was some other defect involved. Or negligence if it got brittle from laying in the sun or if a dog gnawed on it.
