Interesting, thanks. I thought it was odd that Voyager launched only two years after DS9. Seems to suggest a lack of confidence in DS9, although it would keep on running for several years.
I've read about this before, but why was 7 years the magic number?
Well, one would think so. But there are more than a few cable channels that are horribly compressed to hell and back and look awful. Yet they remain on the air somehow.
True, but these days it is easier than ever to preserve...
