DVDs also have a rather limited shelf life

Not to ruin people getting off of streaming, but the biggest bang for buck in storage will be regular old hard drives unless you need to backup like >500Tb of storage (then tape drives).
DVDs are cool but they only have a 4/8Gb capacity.
BluRay pushes it to 70/100/120gb which is great for one 4K movie lol.

Yeah, even with the extra cost, HDDs are still cheaper than DVDs simply due to being rewritable.

Most people don’t burn lossless quality music or extreme high bitrate 16k movies

Yeah, my vinyl collection is a decoration. The 20TB of storage connected to my PC is where the magic happens.
