Isn't this where the new Archival Disc optical format steps in? With up to 1TB of storage per disc, studios can easily store and preserve copies of the digital source master. As long as the discs aren't stored carelessly, they'll last for up to 100 years or more, by which time they would have been transferred to other, better, media.Reed Grele said:Our Blu-Rays will probably last longer than the studios digital masters. If they're that foolish not to invest in digital preservation, I'll sell them back my collection in 25 years. At least they'll have a 1080p copy.
