Of course the problem is-- what if these dvds or blu rays do work in 20, 30, or 50 years? How much of your data will you be able to open from them?

That's the real gamble. No one has a crystal ball. While the discs may survive, drives that are able to read them may not be able to last that long, or the energy standards may change so drastically as to make them completely obsolete. The U.S. Library of Congress is faced with many difficult issues with keeping all digital media usable.
1985 was a good year..
