Overall, I get the impression that HDDs are a far better and cheaper
way of backing up data for the home user. The HDD can be re-used and
if the HDD is plugged in (which can be harder than inserting a DVD)
then the availability is almost instantaneous.


Its also easy to delete masses of data quickly on HDD.....

At least with write-once media like CDR and DVDR there's no
temptation to use it as "extra online space",
