For the curious, I just finished the 2007 media backups to DVD.  Here are the factoids:

• 4626 pictures – actually this is far fewer than I thought
• 1669 video clips.  This does not include the clips from Mini DV camera that gets used for longer events like soccer games or school music programs.
• That translates to just over 58GB (yes, gigabytes) of data, or roughly 16 DVDs.

And I burned 2 sets of DVD backups so that’s 32 DVDs for 2007 media backups.  BTW, this does not include the music backups.

I think it’s time to invest in a good NAS solution.
