[QUOTE="Dysfunction, post: 1643029, member: 51052"] This is the problem. Really, I'd suggest doing regular backups to multiple magnetic media and if you're using optical, 'refresh' it regularly (maybe yearly) to ensure you have copies. Ultimately the only true archival preservation method is an archival grade print (which is becoming more and more difficult to do). Unfortunately, I think we're going to see much of the things we create lost due to technical storage limitations. Much like early photography and literature I'm afraid. [/QUOTE]
