What Dvorak can't figure out is how CC can "improve" his copyrights, i.e. make them stronger. When in fact the point of CC is to selectively give up copyright protections.
Dvorak view of "web elitists" sounds a lot like the conservative construct of the Liberal elitist. What is about people using a CC license that makes him so uncomfortable the size of his junk?
I agree that optical media is reliable and archival. If you burn a stack of CDs and leave them laying around your desk or stacked on a spindel, of course they're going to fail quickly. Get a good quality CD book made with archival-grade materials and then don't leave it on your dashboard in the summer.
It would be nice if media companies listed the dye-type more clearly on the package so NIST data could be applied.
