The dubious durability issues of CD-Rs are primarily due to crappy media, 
crappy burning, and careless storage.

As far as media goes, you need to learn how to find discs by Taiyo Yuden.

The usual fire drill is to burn at a lower-than-rated speed (I currenly
use 
16x), verify every burn,  and then store in the proverbial cool, dry
space. 
If you are really paranoid, burn multiple copies and store the redudant 
copies in two vastly different places.
