The way everybody was supposed to get those digital captures printed by
labs?
There is no reason to believe things will happen the way people expect or
want them to. My understanding is the local ISPs are trying to give away data
storage services. People won't use them. That's for free. Or pretty close to
free. Not to mention the people that would most benefit from handing over
data storage to pros are the people who least understand the issue.

Except when the ball gets dropped it's not one home worth of negatives
being
lost but millions.
