I somehow have a bunch of blank cd and dvds that i got from thrift stores and parents. There good for some linux os’s but besides that im not sure what else to put on them or do with them. I would like to create a sort of binder for rainy days with various media but im stumped.
Im asking what type of media i should put on theses dvds/cds. I would do music but im not the biggest music fan sadly.
In case anyone is curious, an M-Disk burner can make optical backups intended to last long-term. Can be costly though.
There is no special burner that turns regular DVDs and CDs into M-discs. M-discs were a special product that were special because of the disc itself. This doesn’t answer OP.
Lessons from this were applied when designing BluRay discs which are much more resilient than DVDs.
M-discs are just premium BluRays now. Probably not worth the difference in cost given you can buy two BDs from two different batches for the same price as one M-disc. Just avoid LTH BDs which use quicker degrading components.
M-discs are a meme that were made for and only had relevance in the DVD era.
