Twaddle.
Dogway asked how he could check his older discs for quality, and this is what you said. Offering such academic nonsense as an answer to a simple question is what led to this discussion.

Not only that that Philips optics is nowhere to be found (I mean in the consumer realm) and even then it will lack the special firmware that allows the reading of all parameters (it includes here the raw RF laser output), but also nobody will ever spend ~20+ hours (each parameter is measured once and at 1x only) for each disk.
