As I've been getting more physical copies of my favorites, I've been looking into backing up all my physical dvds on digital storage so I don't have to handle the actual dvd and risk scratching it.
- I rip my dvd's to use on my media serve, they then go in a plastic, water-resistant container stored in a dark, cool storage area.
  
  But plug it on at least once a year or you face data corruption.
  
  That’s way too much work tho
