I haven't owned a CD/DVD in at least a decade.

Are you really asking why it's not a good idea to go dig a hole in some random corner of the forest and store your "sealed with glue" PVC pipe full of really important media on DVDs to save for your daughter (who, coincidentally, also has the originals already?) for long term safe data storage?

Or do you just wanna chat?

I mean, I'm cool w/ the second one but I have a hard time taking anyone seriously for the first one.

It's not.
