We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I am a big believer that physical media is dead and there is no reason to have it anymore. This is one of them.

Then I realized that I cannot stream the movie "dogma" anywhere outside of Kodi. My wife and I tried to rent/buy it on Prime the other night and its not available anywhere

Maybe there is no true way to store anything.

I want to get into preservation but it sounds like every way has problems.

Idk where to start anymore. I thought Blu ray was the way.
