An information recording medium including a transparent substrate, and a recording layer or a metallic layer formed on the transparent substrate directly or through an undercoat layer, with an amplitude attenuation time of 1 second or less and/or a vibration frequency attenuation time of 3 seconds or less, when vibrated in the direction perpendicular to the flat surface of said information recording medium, or wherein when the information recording medium is in-plane vibrated in the direction perpendicular to the extending direction of information recording, reproducing and/or deleting tracks, a maximum in-plane deviation of a recording, reproducing or deleting position in the tracks in the perpendicular direction from a correct recording, reproducing or deleting position in the tracks is 12.5×d or less wherein d is an average distance between the adjoining tracks measured in the direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the tracks, and an acceleration of the information recording medium in the perpendicular direction is 0.25 m/s2 or less.
