Oh, I forgot to mention.
I would strongly advise putting them on a portable hard drive and storing that for the long term. So much can go wrong with the drive not spinning up when you need to recover a backup.
Burning a BD-R or DVD since seperates the recorded medium from the reading device. So if the motor fails, you can just get a new drive.
For my personal photos I have a RAID-1 NAS setup. I wasn't going for speed, so two lowspeed 2-TB drives is a cheap option.
Since RAID isn't a backup. I also make two DVD (and more recently BD-R) backups of the photos as well, keeping one copy in my offsite vault (my Mom's house).
I know my Scientific Atlanta SA8300HD box has a bunch of recordings I can't get off due to TDES encryption.
I haven't heard of any ways to get around the encryption, nor any firewire drivers that will get around the 5C encryption.
Yeah, really heavy on the technobabble and marketing speak. I'd like to see some sort of scientific paper or more technical details free of buzz-words before I decide.
Somewhere on their pages they mentioned they only have performed it on very small bit strings.... do I'm not holding my breath.

You mean this wasn't a Star Trek script page? :P
