Just a small "point" , but the data is actually stored on the interface between the silver and the Dye, the plastic disk ("underside") is just a carrier for the silver area.

for your research reading may I recommend:

Crowley, P. & Kleiman, D. (2007) CD and DVD Forensics. Syngress Publishing, pp. 292. ISBN 10: 1-59749-128-4

round-about page 3.
Check out pages 187 onwards
