Blu-ray

I have never owned anything blueray.
No disks, no players, and no burners.
It was a meme technology in 2007 and it is a meme technology today.

I guess you enjoy shitty netflix bitrates

It is not a meme technology. The thing that ruins blueray is sony licensing. Without that it would be the same cost as dvds while being significantly bigger. And there are still plenty of areas where optical technology is still relevant and useful.

Does it still make sense to back up to BDs?

im actually waiting for minidisk blurays in 4 layers

going to be great for optical restores for long term storage in magnetic sensitive areas so i cant use a hdd (ssd arent reliable for cold storage but the i/o is nice for /root/)

yes it does.

dvd is about 4.5GiB max

blurays will allow you to save higher resolution videos or you can format it like a flash drive and use it for archival (combined with compression it will be very effective)

i had x2 mirrored hdds for my NAS backups and i have a directory that has automated Zsnap backups to bluray weekly for sensitive files (financial and legal documents)

if one fails you have another option
and you can also duplicate the bluray a lot easier and move a copy physically to another building in case of water/fire damage

I've only got a blu-ray reader.
didn't really want a burner because I don't like the look of all the products they got plus the designs are butt ugly.
