I have many original professional made audio CDs from the early 90s that if you listen them, there are a lot of skips. I watch them against a light and I can see many dots. Bought them in 1991, started to have this problem a decade ago. They're with a gold dye
For audio CDs I never saw two layers of plastic, only saw that on DVDs. But I stopped buying audio CDs in the late 90s
What do you mean by professional made? The color of any dyes doesn't really enter into it.
Mass produced CDs were physically stamped foil laminated with plastics. Writable discs regardless of quality, professional or otherwise, worked on a completely different principle which would fade (or rot) over time. Pretty much every other problem is physical and not rot.
Professional made = original and paid very expensive, 15 euro in 1991 which was insane
I don't know the terminology but if I listen to it, it skips and if I shine a light through it , I see many small holes
