It struck me the other day that I carry thirty or forty CDs and about ten DVDs around in my car in Southern California, where the internal temperature of a parked car can reach 120 degrees in the summer. I once parked in Arizona and had left a thermometer on the dash. It reached 160 degrees.
But my CDs never warp.
If I remember right, Laser Discs used to have a mark, or sticker, that said "Heat Kills," which makes sense to anyone old enough to remember the fine sculpture that is created when leaving a phonograph record in the car.
How come my CDs are not toast, or at least nicely textured?

A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
