Disc Brakes

Although I ride regularly, I don't read cycling magazines or follow equipment trends online. This forum is new to me having just found it by accident a few weeks ago. Was wondering if what I've read recently about disc brakes putting undue stress on spokes (and breaking them) is true. The two bikes I've purchased recently both have discs and I like them. What gives? Any real-life spoke breaking going on with discs?
