DVDs are easy to clone and again up.

Barely as with CDs, even the most well-shielded DVD collection is not invulnerable to scratches, dust and damage. While a DVD bites the dust, you may waste expensive software, vital data or some beloved film. Thankfully, DVDs can be backed up with minimal trouble by converting them to any image file and then burning them to another DVD.
