+About 200-300 MB per album CD when ripped to FLAC.
+
+### DVD
+
+About 4-8 GB per disc, averaging 5.6 GB per movie as ISO.
+
+### Blu-ray
+
+About 20-50 GB per disc, averaging 37 GB per movie as ISO.

+
+For playback, most software (including Kodi and VLC for Android) can play back DVD ISO with full menu support

+

+
+You can repack a Blu-ray extracted with blu-save by running a command like:
+
+```
+mkisofs -allow-limited-size -o .../my.iso .
+```
+
+from the directory that contains *only* the BDMV directory.
+
+VLC for desktop computers can open a repacked Blu-ray ISO and show the menus. Kodi for Android can open a repacked Blu-ray ISO and identify the titles. However, Kodi did not support the menus for the Blu-ray I tested.
