I back up to Blu-Ray, among other things.

Often (I try to do it daily) I back up to a backup server via rsync.
Then, every few weeks, I make tarballs of the major trees, and back up
the tarballs to DVD. I make a 25GB file, loopback mount and format it
UDF, store all the files on it, then use growisofs to burn it to
Blu-Ray.
