I cannot even access paperbooks on my ebook reader and have no recourse if they get damaged or destroyed. There is no justice.
Well, if your glass is always half-empty AND you really don't care...it's not a problem for you.

If I had any 8 tracks...I would format shift. I've done the same with all my CDs...but I value my vinyl in its current format so I've not shifted those.

And there's nothing wrong with analog (DTBs)...but it can still be shifted, too...
