We had this discussion a long time ago on the archival time span of
various storage methods. B&W, Kodachrome, Ektachrome, Floppy Disks,
and CDs. Now we can add DVD. Each change seems to result in a
storage medium that has an archival time span that is shorter than
before. Maybe the storage life is fine, but the method of viewing
may be gone. (Remember the 8 track?)
Talk about a medium with a short lifespan!
