Backups are only as good as your media. My general understanding of
consumer writable CD/DVD discs is they are really only rated for a
couple of years, after which point your mileage may vary in your ability
to get data back off of them.
I assume the rule would apply to blueray as well, as it seems to be
roughly the same kind of material.
