You should know, depending on the type and quality of the media, that CD/DVDs degrade over time spanning from 5-20 years (very high quality presses/burns can last upward of 50, but you are likely not doing that at home). Probably doesn't matter for most use-cases, but just so people don't get the idea that it's good for long term storage past those rough estimates.
this is how I ended up finding out there are now much better rips available for many of the shows I burned to DVD in the mid 2000s
