DVD's I'm not sure but I copy my CD's to my hard drive using Windows Media Player or any other software that converts a song from CD format to MP3 or WMA formats. A MP3 or WMA file is about a tenth the size of the original. I have over 4 thousand songs on my hard drive and it only takes up about 15 GB of space. I don't think you can back up DVD's without special pirating software.

Does backups stand in the PC after format?
I am guessing you mean "Do backups stay in the PC after Format?" The answer is No, if you store the backups of the files on the same hard drive you are formatting. Its not technically a backup then anyway. To make a proper backup, you need to copy your files to a USB key, burn them to a CD or DVD, or copy them to another computer or hard drive.
