Me and my partner have taken to putting a recording on in the background whenever we have important conversations / do something fun like movie marathons or gaming sessions. We often listen back a few months later and are grateful because we capture so many amazing moments that we otherwise would completely forget.

I have a ton of these recordings and I’m saving the most special ones. This is still about 200 hours of recordings. But they’re my most prized possessions.

I’m new to this world and my research seems to indicate that burning these recordings to multiple discs and then storing them (perhaps even burying them in the garden?!), along with storing on 3 different formats is the way to go. Is this correct? Or is storing that amount of hours on a CD going to be laborious?

Appreciate any help.

    I agree with this but if you want the same quality as the original, encode it in opus @ 192. You won’t be able to tell the difference from the original. I encoded my music collection that I keep on my backup shtf drive. 90gb of lossless files down to 19gb.
