There are several packages that semi-automate backing up to CD. You could
also get a DVD RAM :).

$ apt-cache search backup | grep -i cd
cdbackup - CD-R(W) backup utility
multicd - Backup your data to CD-R/CD-RW
mondo - System to backup your filesystem to CDs

There are more, but I leave finding them as an exercise for the reader ;-).
