Hmm - MO needs a magnetic read head... I guess the technology you 
guys mean is PD as the base for DVD-+RW... 
Phase Change media (no matter what kind) do have a high error rate... 
MO media do not. The biggest customer for those is the US government... 
it is common for a MO disk to have a 40+ year warrenty.
