Or... you could buy multiple copies of the Blu-Ray so that if one copy fails, you'll always have backup Barbies at the ready.

No they'll all fail at the same time 25 to 30 years in the future.

You need to buy multiple copies and place each one in a deep freeze, then thaw each one out as the previous one fails. It's the only logical response.

The physical discs degrade overtime. Getting 10 copies now won't stop that, even if one might outlast another for a bit.
