joel_reed,
This is precisely why Blu-ray discs will come with a super-hard, durable spin coating on them. TDK will be using Durabis, which has been shown to effectively resist fingerprints, woolpads, dirt, sand, ink, and hell, even a screwdriver!
This is one of many reasons I back Blu-ray, as it is very important to me as well, because with the current state of DVDs, the durability is less than stellar lets just say. Downright disappointing in my book. Moreover, when you look at how HD DVD will be using the same technology as DVD, that is to put it more accurately, doing nothing in terms of making their discs more durable, I find Blu-ray the clear victor here.
I'm waiting for the BDA to start hitting the durability marketing hype here real soon.
