CD-rs have a shelf life though of about 10 years if you're lucky, less or more depending on various conditions. With a pressed disc, you'll be able to listen to it 100 years from now.
Not true at all - all cd's have a shelf-life.
You are right, my point was one should still expect that a properly pressed CD will last much longer than a properly burned CD-r. And of course the years I said are mostly estimates, based on that.
