Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has publicly acknowledged issues with DVD discs produced between 2006 and 2008, which are failing more quickly than expected, commonly referred to as "disc rot." The company is providing replacements for these defective titles, although some may only be exchanged for like-value titles if the originals are no longer available. Despite DVDs generally having a lifespan of up to 100 years, reports from collectors indicate broader issues with DVD rot affecting a range of titles. They suggest checking for playback problems to identify affected discs.
Warner Bros. Home Entertainment acknowledged that DVDs produced between 2006 and 2008 are experiencing premature failure and has initiated a replacement program for affected titles.
Despite DVD’s expected longevity, many titles produced by WBHE from 2006 to 2008 are failing, prompting consumer concerns and discussion across numerous forums.
While Warner Bros. addresses these issues, some affected DVDs may not get replaced with the same title due to them being out of print or lack of rights.
Experts suggest that typical DVDs, when well cared for, should last up to 100 years, highlighting the unusual nature of the rot occurring with these specific WB discs.
