My personal conspiracy theory is that Sony is trying to kill Blu-ray before it enters public domain. (2028-2030 or so). Single-layer Blu-rays are invaluable for my cold storage backups. So I'm going to keep buying them. And thanks to them, entering public domain, innovation will be possible once again. So, in all honesty, I don't have that much to fear, as mega corporations also use blu-rays heavily for backups, together with tape.

How's the long-term stability of Blu-Ray? I know we're running into problems with magnetic tape and CDs degrading.

There's M-Discs which are supposed to last 100 years I've heard.
