The lifespan shouldn't change from a regularily burned disc of the same type... but keep in mind that even a minor burn screw up could make it very hard to recover previous disc sessions (if you burn multiple sessions). It's a funny format for burning really... and not recommended for keeping important files simply because the format itself is not as stable as disc at once recording.
