I know, I know. I know with PC data there is a better chance the media will change before the data is lost. Tape to Floppy drives to CD to DVD and now Blu-Ray. Or a removable stick can't be read because it can't fit into a new slot in a newer generation usb reader.
What gets me is we use these past examples as reasons to just accept the inevitable. We have become the audience in the first Apple Mac commercial. We have turned into Zombies.
