Ha.  And 5 years from now will DVD's even exist?  They are gone from laptops now, and with videos being streamed, perhaps as a media it will die soon.

I agree, Aram. The current generation is the most recorded, but least preserved in history.

When I gave our daughter a dvd of photos of her wedding, I advised her that it needed to be copied on to a fresh dvd (or other, updated media) every 5 years, to ensure preservation, she said, "Oh, 5 years is enough"!!

It's a different world!
