    Blu Ray Burner for backup storage or?

    Yes it's wise to do quality scans to see when it's time to burn them to new media. The deterioration also means that you should strive to make as good burns as possible to make the disks be good enough for as long as possible. With quality scan I mean measuring the error correction and not just...

    Bus monitor harassed into tears...

    I am not for corporal punishment as I don't think fear is a good way to get respect. I would ground them and not let them watch TV, surf the internet or have mobile phones. If they wanted to buy something they would have to work and pay for it themselves.
