I think DRM free digital media is viable as well. A hard drive doesn't have the lifespan of a blu-ray, but modern drives are good about warning of catastrophic failure, and I suspect most people that have digital media libraries migrate them to new storage as wanted/needed.
There's something satisfying about physical media that digital lacks. I get that appeal. But I don't think it's superior for media preservation.
