CDs are easy to back up, comparatively, and they do degrade faster then the other options over time (5, 10, 15 years and many become unusable).

Wile writable CDs will decay relatively quickly, professionally mastered CD-ROMS will typically last longer.
On the other hand, a scratch in the wrong place can render a CD useless while a book with a torn out page will still be usable.
