What happens when DVDs become obsolete as a means of archiving images?
Inevitably, technology changes. Formats evolve. Eight tracks go bye-bye. The beauty of digital is that, while the DVD format will undoubtedly be replaced several times in our lifetime, the ones and zeros that make up the image always should be readable one way or another. I am confident that you will be able to transfer digital files (without image degradation) from one standard to the next well into the next millennium. I recommend to my clients that they are diligent about re-archiving their images to the most current media every couple of years.
