I used to use them for archiving purposes, but after hearing a few horror stories about people losing data, I decided to archive on hard drives instead. It's more convenient for me too, although one glitch and I could lose my whole drive.
Eventually, I'll probably back up the hard drives with other hard drives, or just get rid of some of the older stuff I have that is no longer needed. A terabyte is a lot to back up - it tends to heat up the drives until they're almost too hot to touch
