Hmm to me the longest lasting way of preserving in modern media would be the DVD format. Still if you want something that a cave man could play, well a metalllic record still information would be able to be retrievd, by spinning and a stylus. I have a 78 stamper of an Opera number recorded in the 1950s, it is very clear and playable, (although you have to play it counter clock, and it had not lived a kind life. It is copper with a nickel facing.
