What are people doing with the raw AVI files copied from a DV camera. each hour is about 13MB in size, do these need to be archved as they are for future use or is it good enough to author them to a DVD and then get rid of them.

TIA

DV is not raw; it is still compressed. For actual raw avi's I would suggest something like WinRAR or compressing with a lossless codec.

Yes. HDD's have gotten bigger and cheaper. HDDVD and BluRay weren't around either and I am not sure even double layer DVDR's were out back then.
