Does CDs and/or DVDs grasp worn out by wishy-washy over time?

Well, I own CDs and DVDs that were surrounded by Jewel CD covers but I moved them to plastic covers and put them contained by binder. I was wondering if I go them in binder they will be diluted by light?

Does CDs and/or DVDs grasp worn out by wishy-washy over time?

Yes and No.



"Factory" DVD's and CD's are "pressed", and but for damaged should second for many years (Like records)



"Home-made" or "Burned" DVD's and CD's use a dye seam. They can only be expected to finishing, if not diluted, for up to 4 years.
if you think in the order of it, anythign exposted to light over a long interval of time will get worn out.
By the light of the sun: yeah
The valid answer is that CDs and DVDs haven't been around for satisfactory years to tell if regular exposure will defacement them like quality newspaper will yellow after so plentiful years. Professional testing labs own simulated exposure and they believe the disks will not be harmed.



One thing to mention, though, is don't hand down them in your motor in direct sunlight. They will defrost or warp, just approaching any other plastic.
How the discs are handled and stored can greatly affect their longevity. CD-Rs, beside their dye layer, are especially prone to street light. Leaving them on a desk can lessen the dye’s reactivity when passed through the recorder’s laser beam. The dye’s chemical state also make for the shorter life span beforehand they are recorded. As time go on, the dye loses its ability to modification from transparent to opaque. In other words, if you are singular going to use one every six months, do not buy the 50-pack at your local warehouse club.
