Default 2004 CD player

Actually CDRs are much less reflective than 'pressed' CDs and as
such some older CD players don't have the laser power needed to get
a good (reflected) signal.


** CDRs use the same metallised ( Gold or Silver) reflecting layer
as a normal CD.




Yes. The difference is in the construction of the non-refecting
areas.


** Shame how that admission completely removes your original claim.


I didn't think that you were going to split hairs.

In a
CD they're pressed into the refecting later and become 'pits'



** Pits come first, reflective metallisation comes afterwards.

The whole game is wavelength dependant.


Perhaps with blu-ray it is but not so much with CDs as the dark and light
areas are large enough for any wavelength to read you moron.

whereas with a
CDR a dye layer between the reflecting area and the pickup laser is
'burned' changing it's reflectivity index.



** The dye simply becomes opaque.


Which is a ****wit way of saying it's reflectivity index or ability to
transmit light has changed.

You are just making " facts " up as you go.

A process called "confabulation".

A euphemism for bull****ting.


I see you're back to your MO of trying to be so obnoxious as to scare others
off so you can have the last say. Funny how it always happens in the evening
when you're ****sed. You ****ing cock-swallowing galah.
