@Sxan@piefed.zip nailed the main point. I’m making a legal backup copy of the content to store on DVD/Blu-ray discs in case something goes wrong or the files get corrupted

DVDs have been around long enough that they are going out of style. How many people have been convicted of backing up their dvds?

It’s ok to break stupid laws. You won’t die

there is no legal issue with ripping your own dvd and using it on a jellyfin server or even making dvd copies. the only restriction is you cant distribute or sell access to them

Creating a (usable) backup of a soon failing data carrier should be legal either way. Yeah, a lot of countries have stupid laws there, but as long as you don’t share the data on the internet, you should be fine.
