Sounds pricey. Discs are cheap.

I've never had a CD/DVD R last more than a year anyway, even when using expensive media and slow burn speeds. So its not exactly archival.

Doesn't matter that much for Blu-rays since they're non-organic anyway. It mattered more for DVDs since they use organic dyes, but I couldn't find any M-Disc DVDs in Poland.
