If you really mean DVD, I'd suggest caution.  IBM DVD media is not
very reliable.  If you are going to move the data to a PC to create 
the DVD, I think it would be better to write it to a hard drive.  Even 
at that, I think I'd want to create two copies on two hard drives.

You might want to consider what Shai Hess offers.
