So what would you guys say is the best file type, media format and
media type to use if I want them to be easily accessible for decades?



Archival prints.

(With Photoshop .psd, .tif, and .jpg on harddrive as backup).

AND a CD or DVD backup of that drive which WILL eventually fail...



Yes, so? What backup method won't eventually fail? HDs fail, CDs fail,
tape fails, even paper fails. So, you don't just backup and forget. You
backup and test the backup media. Every so often, you rebackup.
