WB Disc Rot Replacement

By BD Bondy

​A couple of weeks ago I wrote about a problem with some Warner Brothers DVD discs, created between 2006 and 2008ish. I’d like to take full credit in seeing that Warner Brothers has stepped up and is replacing discs, kinda sorta.

It appears that if you have the defective discs, you can contact WB and they will do something about it, perhaps? Not all the discs that fail are still in production and also, not all are even still under WB licensing, so a disc title may get substituted for something else. Hopefully though, you will get an actual replacement of the bad title.

A thorough link on the issue can be found HERE.

And an article talking about the replacement issues can be found HERE.

Ultimately, you can contact WB about the discs HERE: [email protected] and HERE.
When Kidde had some of their fire extinguishers deemed defective, they created a great website that helped you get a replacement by filling out an online form. It was immediately verified and a new fire extinguisher was sent out.

WB could do the same, except they are not. Currently, there appears only to be a webmail address where you can write “them” about the issue. I am assuming they would respond and work out a deal where they send some sort of replacement. I haven’t tried it so I don’t know. It seems likely that that WB is not trying to be all that helpful in resolving the defective disc problem, still, it’s worth a try.
