there are a whole shitload of lost films from early cinema and even TV shows as late as whatever doctor who episodes are missing

mainline pokemon isn't in danger of becoming lost media but a bunch of other stuff is or has been lost.

    I don't think they are arguing against preservation though, they are criticizing a specific type of person who is opposed to unofficial emulation unless it's the only option. There are a shocking number of people out there who will avoid options that are both cheaper and higher quality than official means of playing games just because they respect IP rights.
