It depends on the optical disc and the temperature/humidity of your refrigerator. See the NIST study on optical disc stability. You might want to check CD burn quality with 'Nero CD-DVD speed' right after burning, and the quality after freezing a test disc. posted by aye at 2:10 PM on October 3, 2006 [1 favorite]
It should be okay, I think. This is for a sneaky gift idea, isn't it? posted by jacob at 2:10 PM on October 3, 2006
I've had CDs and CD-Rs in my car for several Canadian winters with apparently no negative affects. posted by Mitheral at 2:11 PM on October 3, 2006
I noticed you said it was a music CD (in the tags), so it should be OK at almost any temperature. posted by aye at 2:12 PM on October 3, 2006
Watch out for condensation on the disc as it warms up. You might end up killing your CD player with that extra moisture.
But the CD will be fine. posted by smackfu at 2:21 PM on October 3, 2006
