If you're talking about DVD disks as opposed to USB dongles and other hardware... yes, they are less costly. But it's still a lot of plastic to be recycled or landfilled, which still has to happen after it is "self-destructed" (the info is lost, but the disk is still there). Maybe if they were compostable...
