So is saving the CF/SD cards as digital film a viable back-up strategy?
If the data is as secure as burning a DVD, would be rather convenient,
though with a price penalty. Perhaps CF/SD card--HD, HD backup is
sufficient.
IIRC, manufactuer data sheets have claimed data good for 10 years.
Shouldn't the data rot bit by bit with ECC codes to help compensate?
Perhaps a really good quality DVD ( or Blu-ray) is better on second
thought. Others must have thought this through.

Not arguing here for or against either, just that CF cards aren't
necessarily the cheapest solution.
