DVD perhaps yes, until the disc degrades.
BluRay no, because your player's keys can be revoked when you pop in a new disc.

Which is the same constraint as pretty much any other physical item one might purchase. "reasonably a forever" is a reasonable description.
I know it's not the point you're making but I would enjoy a post-apocalyptic post-AI movie where they pass on the lesson of the dangers of AI through an oral recounting or stage production of T2.
Ok, how long do you have to rip & copy the content as you desire? It is still reasonably a forever version. Before you bring up laws around keys, first consider that jaywalking in front of your house is illegal too. Again, it is reasonably a forever version.
jaywalking in front of your house is illegal
In most parts of the world it’s not illegal. That’s a seriously draconian law.
Crossing the street in a residential neighborhood is legal in almost all of the world and increasingly legal in the US as well. Many major cities started with non-enforcement and some are rolling back jaywalking laws entirely.
Why even bother with all those hoops. Just download.
Oh, I was adding a pertinent point of discussion in a discussion board. It is fun. I suggest you try it.

Wait what? How? How is that possibly legal?
Key revocation applies to releases published after the revocation date. Old media should continue playing with a compromised device key.
That wasn't what was implied then. If old media continues playing then it's still "forever".
This was planned for DVDs too, but they failed miserably.
In any other case: use MakeMKV
