Major laser rot on Genesis - Three Sides Live

First of all, it's the 1991 reissue. Wow.... Side A on this disc isn't bad
at all. But on side B the first 10 minutes are FULL of of those colored
speckles. The middle is pretty good, but it gets bad at the end again.

Any estimates on how long this disc will last me before my player actually
rejects it? heh... I hope a while since I've been searching for this disc
forever and just finally got it in the mail yesterday. I was so excited
but then became disappointed when I played the second side.

The disc should be fully rotted by now. Did the seller disclose the
rot to you before the sale? I would complain to the seller. Perhaps
you could negotiate a partial refund since side one is in good
condition.

no he didn't. it wasn't an ebay sale though. i'll talk to him. i'll just
copy it to DVD like right away and hope it doesn't get much worse on the
LD i guess.
