I mean, as long as there is a hard copy archive option out there this is ok (cloud is already flirting with copyblight).

At least they're not enforcing Memory Stick on us again.

Did anyone ever burn their blu ray discs? There has been so many better options like USB sticks and external hard drives ever since the launch of blu ray.

Yes, they are the best medium for long term backups, as optical discs should be fine for decades. Hard drives and USB sticks are liable to fail within a few years.

That’s probably true. I just wasn’t aware blu ray had burnable discs until now.
