you can burn any file to a DVD

Just burn the DVD as a data disc

it would probably be simpler if you got yourself a spare hd and copy your stuff to that. It would be faster too.

Just burn them as DATA DVDs. 3 DVDs = 13.5Gb. I have a complete backup of my entire 25Gb+ MP3 collection on DVD data discs. Hard drives fail.
