I want to download a couple of videos from creators I like, to keep them in case they are ever lost later (whether due to censorship or drama, etc). What is the best method to use for getting files from youtube? bonus points especially if they result in file types that I can burn to a dvd.
Beware it will not last like a factory made DVD or Bluray. Home burned optical media is more volatile, so not a great solution for decades-long backups.
To add on to this, you’d need archival grade discs for this. Last time I looked, they were around $4/$5 per disc in a spindle for blurays, with a 50yr min lifespan.
