Hi John:
You said that your client has the analog originals on hand. I would suggest that he not put too much
time or money into sussing out problems with CDR media made a decade ago in a Sony CD recorder.
Rather, he should spend his time and money re-transferring the material, in high resolution, to a
modern storage system. And he should be aware of budgeting for future expenses to maintain and
migrate the data.
